Hello, I'm Liz! I have over 5 years of experience working inpatient, outpatient, and varying levels of severity. I enjoy getting to know people and be an extra ear to their troubles. I can be sarcastic at times, and consider myself a person talking to people!
Life can present unexpected challenges, major transitions, and moments of intense uncertainty that leave us feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from who we are. Whether you are navigating anxiety, processing trauma, adjusting to parenthood, or breaking old patterns that no longer serve you, I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space to help you find your footing.
My work with adults centers on major life transitions, anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity exploration and personal growth. I integrate relational, somatic, and strength-based approaches to help you process complex emotions and deepen your self-awareness.
Additionally, I support children and families through trauma and developmental shifts. When working with kids, I use the natural language of play and honest, age-appropriate narratives to help them express what they may not yet have the words to say, ensuring both caregivers and children feel supported along the way.

I have been providing individual and couples therapy since I graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015, and I specialize in treating adults.
Hello and thank you for looking at my profile. My approach to providing therapy is to Keep. It. Simple.
I focus on the mind-body connection to help you understand why things feel the way they do, how our brain and body interpret certain feelings and experiences, and then what you can do to try to manage those feelings and make situations feel more comfortable and under control.
I specialize working with adolescents, but welcome all ages and genders. My main areas of clinical focus are in mood disorders such as depression and anxiety.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
With more than 30 years of experience, I've helped individuals navigate anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and life's many transitions with compassion, understanding, and practical support.
I know reaching out for help isn't always easy. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward greater confidence, healing, and peace of mind.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Aurora
Searching for postpartum therapists in Aurora starts with finding someone whose training matches the support you want. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you review therapist profiles, look for experience with perinatal mental health, postpartum support, and related concerns. The perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal focused training in care during pregnancy and after birth.
Aurora offers both local and virtual therapy options, which can help you choose care that fits your schedule, location, and preferences. For new parents, virtual sessions can make care easier to access during infant care, physical recovery, or changing routines. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation, and the approach they use in sessions. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe postpartum care, communication style, and what to expect in the first appointment.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can compare therapist bios, check insurance fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
