I have experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and older adults. While I use a variety of approaches (including AEDP, Existential Theory, Attachment Theory, EFT, and DBT), ultimately I like to let our work together inform which approach suits our time best. I am knowledgeable about trauma-informed practice and bring a lot of my own life experiences into the sessions, through my work as a teacher, professional firefighter, and professionaI musician.

Hi, I’m Lizzy! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with degrees in social work, and I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, chronic stress, and the ups and downs of daily life. My approach is holistic—I use tools from CBT, DBT, polyvagal theory, and body-centered psychotherapy—because I believe that healing happens when we care for both the mind and the body.

I believe that people already have within them the power to heal, meet their goals, and be the best version of themselves. I believe that my job is to help you harness that power! I believe that families, couples, and individuals are affected by the systems wherein they exist, whether that means societal, familial, generational or personal patterns, and that their experiences with those systems affect the way they are able to connect with the world around them.

Lately it feels like the only certainty is uncertainty. Everywhere you look people are stressed and sometimes it feels hard to breathe. There's a lot of temptation to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and keep pressing on like everything is okay. But the truth is everything is not okay. The fact that you are struggling doesn't make you weak...it makes you Human. You can choose to keep going as you are and hope things get better on their own. Or you can go for the life you were meant to live. Monday Courage is about the courage it takes to break your rules and start living life with purpose.

You don’t have to have it all figured out to start therapy. I’m Sydney! I work with people who want support and a space to talk openly, even if they’re not sure where to start. I take a strengths-based approach and meet clients where they are, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for them. I’m trained in EMDR, which I often use to help process trauma and difficult experiences in a way that feels manageable. EMDR can help clients who feel stuck or overwhelmed by past experiences, or for those who’ve tried talk therapy and want something different.
