Hi, I’m Eliza Ale-Finks, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker with more than 10 years of experience in mental health and a Master of Social Work degree. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, and major life transitions.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or emotionally exhausted? I help adults manage anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, and ADHD through structured, supportive online therapy. Many of my clients are high-functioning professionals who feel pressure to “hold it together” while struggling internally.

I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 13 years of experience. I provide online therapy and am in-network with major insurance plans to make care accessible and practical.

I have more than 25 years of experience assessing and treating adolescents, adults, and families.

More often than not, you won’t leave a session wondering what’s next.

Therapist

I want you to know that when you come into therapy, I see you—not just a diagnosis, a list of symptoms, or the challenges that brought you here. You are a whole person with your own experiences, strengths, values, and story.

My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without fear of judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. You can be honest, ask questions, laugh, cry, vent, or simply take things one step at a time. Therapy is your space, and we will move at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe therapy works best as a partnership. We’ll work together to better understand what’s going on, identify what you want for your life, and create goals that feel realistic and meaningful to you—not just goals that look good on paper.

Most importantly, I believe that change is possible. It doesn’t have to happen overnight, and progress isn’t always a straight line. Even when things feel uncertain, overwhelming, or slow, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’ll be here to support, encourage, and challenge you when needed—while helping you recognize the strength and ability you already have within you to create meaningful change.

Before becoming a counselor, I worked as a deputy sheriff, firefighter, EMT, 911 dispatcher, and U.S. Navy Reserve member. That background shapes how I show up in sessions: direct, practical, and without judgment. I pursued counseling because I found I was genuinely good at helping people feel better, and I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, and difficult life decisions. If you have been waiting to talk to someone, I am glad you are here.

Welcome. Seeking support can feel difficult, especially when you're managing overwhelming emotions, relationship stress, painful experiences, or simply feeling disconnected from the life you want to live. I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, PTSD, women's issues, and challenges related to self-esteem, life transitions, and relationships. I understand that healing looks different for everyone, and I believe therapy should provide a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely understood. Whether you're struggling with day-to-day stress, navigating the impact of past experiences, or trying to make sense of difficult emotions, my goal is to help you gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and build a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. Together, we can create meaningful change while honoring your unique experiences, strengths, and goals.
