Hi, my name is Liz! As a mental health counselor, I accompany individuals through life’s challenges and bear witness to their experiences. I work to provide children, teens, and young adults the tools and a safe space to grow and succeed.

I specialize in addressing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, ADHD, anger management, and other behavioral concerns.

My areas of expertise are Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, including CPTSD, complex trauma, sexuality, ADHD, panic attack, anxiety, schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, Dissociative Identity Disorder, and depression.

My broad experience both in a variety of psychological treatment modalities (Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy and Emotion Focused Therapy), as well as in working with a wide range of clients, enables me to provide therapy that is both deeply compassionate and well-rooted in psychological science. I’m here to help you create stronger, more fulfilling relationships, make peace with yourself, and start living a life of fulfillment and connection.

It's your time now! It's your time to live the life that you are destined to live. It would honor me to serve you now.

Are you on a journey to discover your identity through self-exploration? Are you having a hard time adjusting to a new season of your life? Do you feel sad, anxious, or angry and have difficulty identifying why? Are you having difficulty navigating your relationships (e.g., friendships, intimate partnerships, or familial relationships)? You want to live a life where you are operating at your fullest potential. You want to remain who you genuinely are, even when faced with adversity. You want to work on identifying stressors and regulating your emotions.

“Healing does not mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives.” Everyone deserves to live their absolute best life. Challenges may arise, however, that are difficult to overcome. You may be seeking help because you are experiencing pain, fear, anxiety, or a sense of hopelessness. You may feel stuck around a particular issue or unable to let go of events from the past. I understand how frightening and isolating these feelings can be. As your therapist, I will be honored to hear your story and offer my support and care as I help you develop the skills needed to reach your goals.

Not sure if you are ready to begin your therapeutic experience? Give us a call and receive more information about how therapy works as well as what to expect. I have utilized several different types of therapies (CBT, DBT, TF-CBT, Art Therapy and Play Therapy, EMDR) including groups with the emphasis on your needs.

You are the expert on your experience, I am here to meet you where you are at and help guide you to where you want to go. I am honored to be a part of your healing journey, whether that involves building new coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, or depression or processing difficult experiences through storytelling.

Chances are if you have landed here, it’s because you are curious about therapy. Perhaps you’ve been a bit more worried, down, or stuck lately. You know that something is ‘off’ even if you don’t quite know how to describe it yet. Something is different about yourself and your relationships. Maybe you no longer have the energy to do the things you used to love. You may even be trying so hard to look like you have it together so these feelings remain hidden. You're exhausted, just pushing through. Well I invite you to join me in creating meaningful change in your life.

My therapeutic lens is rooted in the tenants of social work and social justice. As a clinician I meet clients where they are and recognize that no person functions outside of their environment. So as we delve into issues of mental health symptoms, we will also be investigating how society at large plays a role in our health. I lean heavily on psychodynamic processing and a focused mindfulness practice called Brainspotting. I also engage clients through CBT, DBT, and narrative therapy. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly and am continually in the process of being anti-racist.

I am a therapist with extensive experience in providing therapy to individuals, couples, and families. My specialization in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing allows me to effectively treat conditions like PTSD, Panic Disorder, and phobias. Additionally; I have a special interest in supporting couples in overcoming infidelity, and I place great emphasis on promoting healthy communication skills and fostering meaningful connections. I strive to create a comfortable and supportive environment where clients can experience personal growth and find satisfaction.

My approach specializes in helping you understand why relationships or other aspects of life are not functioning as you hoped. We will work together to develop a plan, repair past pains and disappointments, and help you begin to living the life you always wanted. Your story and your pain have a purpose, and your voice matters. Depression, anxiety, a persistent fear of rejection, or feeling alone and hopeless can impact all aspects of life; including relationships, marriages, jobs/careers, and children. Together we will use your strengths and wisdom to find solutions, relief, and the enjoyment you deserve.

The stress of daily life often leaves us emotionally depleted. While you can neglect your mental health for a while, issues always seem to catch up with us. Whatever roadblocks you face, we will develop concrete solutions through an individualized approach. What you are experiencing needs to be validated and heard. I have experience in treating most severe mental illnesses. Depression and anxiety have become a focus of mine since they are so common.

Over the next few months, I will complete my dissertation as the last requirement for my doctoral degree in psychology. I work with individuals with a large assortment of concerns, from personality disorders, depression, trauma, body image, LGBTQ issues, men's issues, LGBTQ, relationships, assertive communication, self-esteem, self-compassion, and health and wellness. In addition, I have an array of experience conducting psychological evaluation and is my ongoing passion.

"You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." When life seems overwhelming, sometimes the hardest part is just getting started. Working with an experienced and dedicated therapist can enhance your quality of life and provide a foundation for positive growth in all areas of life.

As the parent of a child/teen that struggles with their wounded selves, you have tried everything. The exhaustive interventions that you have tried are going nowhere fast. Throwing in the towel is all that you have left. Your marriage is more daunting than it is invigorating and you keep hitting a wall with connecting to one another. Depression has you stuck in quicksand and the struggle is consuming you. Anxiety has its grip on you and it is controlling your life. You find yourself asking what more can you do? You feel all alone in your struggles and are having more moments of frustration than joy. Asking for help is hard.
