Teletherapy for 10010

As a counselor, I aim to be a mirror for you to help you understand your thoughts, process your feelings, and see your patterns. Through building awareness of ourselves in a nonjudgmental place, we can learn to accept ourselves and make the changes we want to see. I value collaborating with clients to build self-esteem, manage stress during challenges or transitions, and create healthier relationships. Common focuses include self-esteem, adjustment, communication, empathy training, strength identification, coping skills, trauma, stress management and career/school issues.

Many of my clients are struggling to form healthy relationships. Challenges might arise with their partners, families, friends, or coworkers. I work with them to unpack the relationship patterns they’ve been carrying since childhood so new, healthy dynamics can take root. I also enjoy working with creatives. As a former entertainment employee, I have a deep understanding of the unique challenges they face. Through self-reflection, I help these individuals find joy in their work.

You’re my ideal client! I want to meet you wherever you are & journey with you to where you want to go. Ever pass people who look impossibly high-functioning/put together - makes you feel like you'll never get there? So many look in a mirror & wonder who’s staring back & how they became who they are now.  To understand you, we first have to understand the story you’ve created from the beginning.  Letting others into dark corners of your life, where hurt hides, can be scary & painful.  But, it’s in those moments where healing happens. My role, in your journey, is to stand beside you, in the darker places, & help you turn on a light

As a clinician, the therapeutic process is only meaningful and complete with the reciprocity and engagement of those I work with. Each individual is unique and their stories are interwoven with a rich tapestry of diverse emotions. By balancing the abstract, creative, philosophical, and introspective aspects of life with friendliness, compassion, empathy and care, I walk the path with you on your journey toward peace and happiness.

As a social worker psychotherapist, I have been trained to address not just your immediate symptoms, but also all of the various other factors that may be involved—family structure, past experiences, spirituality, bodily health, and systemic issues, to name a few. There are so many unique and important pieces that have come together to affect your experience of the world; they deserve to be acknowledged!

My ideal clients are young women struggling with relationships, self esteem, and body image. If they grew up in a manipulative, abusive, or enmeshed environment, they might find themselves taking on perfectionistic or caretaking behaviors. They might also be experiencing a “quarter life crisis,” exploring a new career path, or unpacking how family dynamics have impacted them. My vision is for clients to put themselves first, live by their values, and understand their needs. In our work together, we’ll get clear on how your past has influenced your present so you can build a life that aligns with what’s most important to you.

I believe that every human holds the innate capacity to heal, especially queer individuals whose lives are rooted in resilience. Through therapy, I highlight the potential of empowerment and strength in overcoming trauma and everyday challenges alike. I bring my research experience in body image and eating disorders among queer populations to frame my clinical work. My style can be described as active, warm, encouraging, and fun. While I incorporate elements of cognitive-behavioral, narrative, psychodynamic, and client-centered modalities, meeting with me will feel like a conversation with a warm, supportive friend.

My clients include women of color from diverse backgrounds who are struggling with self love, self esteem, colorism, hair stigma, cultural adjustment, religious identity, and intersectionality. Women of color are hit the hardest with race-related stress, and yet they seldom have the proper resources or tools to heal. In my practice, I help clients disrupt the intergenerational trauma that continues impacting them.

I approach counseling from a practical, client-centered approach. I believe in meeting people where they are at, setting attainable therapeutic goals, and fostering intentional self-exploration. My experience with clients focuses on changing behavioral patterns, dealing with interpersonal issues, exploring new coping skills, and addressing symptoms of depression and anxiety. I have worked facilitating group therapy for people diagnosed as HIV+, as well as individual counseling for LGBT+ people. I have a history of working with people experiencing substance use from both abstinence and harm reduction approaches.

I practice with a direct and compassionate focus on therapy; providing a safe, welcoming environment that allows for intimate therapeutic communication where trust and confidence come easily and naturally. Having been trained in psychoanalysis, I also incorporate CBT, ACT, narrative therapy and mindfulness to my practice. I am certified in EMDR and DBT as well as CSTIP (Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional).

Everyone can achieve authentic happiness, greater creativity and deeper intimacy in their relationships. I'm committed to building partnerships that helps my clients become more fully connected and alive. I have a private practice in Chelsea and provide psychotherapy at The Juilliard School Counseling Services. I feel that creativity that each person holds is one of their greatest treasures, and cultivating it is one of their greatest adventures.

I believe in community care, liberation, growth, joy, resilience, healing, and justice. We live within various systems and institutions that impact how we navigate our lives in relation to each other. I am here to invite and support you in exploring connections to yourself, your communities, and the world around you. I am passionate about working with intersectional identities of race, gender, sexuality, and neurodivergence and focus around issues of relationships, trauma, transitions, and alternative lifestyles (such as kink/BDSM, polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, etc.).

Elizabeth Tullis (Bittiker) is a licensed psychotherapist and Senior Associate Therapist at Tate Psychotherapy. Elizabeth provides both virtual and in-person therapy in New York and utilizes an integrative approach with an emphasis on internal family systems and cognitive behavioral therapy.

I counsel individuals and couples and run support groups, with empathy, clarity, and humor, maintaining a hybrid style that draws from mindfulness, practicality, and unconditional positive regard. I consider myself another person in the room, not a blank slate, working collaboratively with my clients toward their goals.

If you're hurting right now that doesn't mean something is wrong with you. Many people who work with me learn that the behaviors they want to overcome are normal responses to life’s challenges. That doesn’t mean that you need to get used to sleepless nights, racing thoughts, panic attacks, or depressive episodes. I’ll help you make sense of why you are responding in these ways and together we’ll help you find relief. The work we do will involve radical self-acceptance.

Starting therapy requires bravery and vulnerability. As someone who has been on both sides of the equation – clinician and client – I want to make this act of courage on your part as comfortable as possible. I know what it feels like to share my experiences with a clinician and have them respond back to me with kindness, openness, and acceptance – sometimes simply by saying “You went through all that? Me too.” As your therapist, I’ll work with you to identify any thoughts, behaviors, emotions, or limiting beliefs preventing you from living a meaningful, joyful life.

Anyone, at any given time, across any geographical or demographical divide, can experience emotional distress and compensatory adaptive behaviors to recalibrate and/or regulate. This is the human condition. Yet, when this distress is prolonged, and behaviors once adaptive become maladaptive, the emotions are harder to regulate, and evidence of this is seen in key domains of functioning: intellectual, interpersonal, intrapersonal, occupational, and educational.
