I want to help you help yourself. I believe everyone is capable of change and I will teach you skills to use everyday.

Hi, I am a Licensed, Board-Certified Therapist providing psychotherapy services to clients in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Virginia. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, addiction, anger, relationship challenges, and a wide range of other mental health concerns.

As a member of and advocate for the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, I strive to provide affirming, culturally responsive, and inclusive care. I am also a certified Gottman Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work (7P's) Couples Workshop Leader, helping couples strengthen communication, deepen connection, and build healthier relationships.

In addition to providing therapy, I offer professional clinical supervision for Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor Limited Permit (LMHC-LP) professionals, supporting their growth and development in clinical practice.

Believing you are the expert in your life my hope is to act as a beacon of light on a path that sometimes goes dark.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page.

My name is Liz Torres, LPC, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's challenges, crises, and periods of transition. As a Licensed Crisis Clinician, I have worked closely with adolescents, adults, and families facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and mental health concerns.

My professional background includes crisis intervention, mental health assessment, treatment planning, and providing compassionate, person-centered care to individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, and other life challenges. I am committed to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes.

I believe that every person has unique strengths and a capacity for growth. My approach to therapy is collaborative and tailored to each client's individual needs, goals, and experiences. I utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques while focusing on building a strong therapeutic relationship founded on trust, empathy, and understanding.

Whether you are navigating a current crisis, struggling with overwhelming emotions, managing life transitions, or seeking personal growth, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and wellness. Together, we can develop practical strategies to help you better understand yourself, build resilience, and create lasting positive change.

I look forward to partnering with you as you take the next step toward improved emotional health and well-being.
