Connect with Elizabeth 'betsy' Hegardt

Are you in a current life transition or struggling to find your overall purpose? I believe you can create meaningful change by enhancing your understanding of beliefs, patterns, and relational dynamics that no longer benefit you. During our work together, I will utilize evidence-based methods to assist you in developing healthier ways of interacting with yourself and others. My therapeutic approach is diverse, drawing on a range of theoretical frameworks. I will rely on you to be the expert in your own life as I work as an active and attentive guide towards the path of healing and growth.
I strive to provide a holistic and integrative approach to help individuals and couples navigate relational issues, past trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, grief and loss, and life transitions. I have experience working with perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and am passionate about supporting clients as they navigate the transition into parenthood.
I understand how important it is to find a therapist that you can connect with and trust. It is an honor to support you in taking this step towards growth and I look forward to hearing from you.
