Not currently accepting patients

Hi there, I'm Elizabeth!

I am a licensed clinical social worker. Clients have described me as thoughtful, relatable, humorous, open-minded, a good listener, and a creative problem solver.

My approach

I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) which is a form of therapy that can be used to treat people with a wide range of mental health struggles. CBT is based on the idea that how we think (cognition), how we feel (emotion), and how we act (behavior) all interact together.

My focus

I have extensive experience working with clients who struggle with anxiety and depression. I also work with the aging population and their families.

My communication style

I strive to provide my clients with a safe and calm environment. I pride myself on being able to challenge my clients to better themselves while building a strong therapeutic bond.

My journey to mental healthcare

I served in the United States Air Force for 4 years. When I left the military, I knew I wanted to be part of a helping profession. Through much research, I decided a career in mental health and social work was the perfect fit. I have worked with people of all ages and their families.

My goals for you

I utilize motivational interviewing to allow the client to set their own obtainable goals.

My first session with you

During the first session, clients can expect to start building and exploring a therapeutic relationship. I will give the client an opportunity to ask me questions and decide if they think we are a good fit.
