Carrying that heavy backpack of emotional "stuff" around? Need help unpacking? All too often we carry these heavy loads, not realizing there are resources and skills that will help you feel better.

Seeking help can be scary and exciting, and it takes a lot of bravery and courage to take the initial step. You may be feeling like you are depressed and anxious due to your trauma.

We can work together to identify your goals and needs and address the emotional and behavioral challenges you experience.
Elizabeth Mueller
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Verified
Seeking therapy can be a challenging step, because opening up about intimate issues to a stranger is both terrifying and can leave you feeling vulnerable. That's why it's important to find somebody with whom you feel comfortable. It is my priority to make one feel at ease, because reaching your goal is more difficult when this is not at the foundation of the therapeutic experience. This approach has enabled me to work with a wide array of children, teens, adults, couples, and families.

Does your life feel confusing? Maybe you’re being pulled in multiple directions, as others expect you to be what they want, instead of who you are. Many people I work with have had difficulties with trauma, anger issues, or anxiety. Others have struggled with impulsivity, transitions, or their sexuality. No matter what you’re going through, things can get better, especially with support. I help people who want to better understand themselves and their struggles, so they can live happier, more peaceful lives. I provide an accepting, non-judgmental environment, where you can relax as you get to know yourself better.

Do you ever feel stuck or overwhelmed? Do you feel like everyone around you is progressing while you sit anxiously waiting for your life to finally start? Are you the one standing at the edge of a pool waiting to jump in but you’re too afraid? What if it’s too deep? What if the water is too cold? You’re not alone. Sometimes we carry negative patterns of thinking from our past that serve as roadblocks to deeper levels of self-awareness. I can help you navigate through the challenging moments in life, and together we can work to uncover what is holding you back from reaching your full potential.

Psychologist, MS, PsyD

I provide psychoeducational assessments for students who are having difficulty in school. Currently I am only providing assessments through an online platform. Striving to help these students understand their strengths and weaknesses, as well as gaining skills to help school become easier is my number one goal. Often my clients have teachers or parents who believe that the student might have a psychological, attention, or learning difference, which is preventing them from learning to the best of their abilities.
