If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in painful relationship patterns, carrying the effects of trauma, or facing a life transition that feels hard to manage, therapy can be a place to exhale. I work with adults who want support making sense of what they’re going through and finding practical ways to feel more grounded, understood, and in control. I also support clients navigating family dynamics, including experiences related to autism, adoption, and complex relationships.

Hi, I’m Liz, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel collaborative, personalized, and human. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and neurodivergence and I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard rather than judged or rushed.

My approach combines medication management with a holistic understanding of mental health, including nervous system regulation, lifestyle, relationships, physical health, and life experiences. Together, we focus on finding practical, sustainable strategies that help you feel more grounded, functional, and like yourself again.

I help adults heal from trauma, grief, and overwhelming life experiences that may still be affecting how you feel day to day. You may be dealing with panic attacks, sleepless nights, nonstop worry, irritability, dissociation, explosive emotions, or the sense that what happened to you is still showing up in your work, relationships, and everyday life. I also work with clients healing from childhood abuse or neglect, grief, car accidents, and other painful experiences that can leave you feeling stuck in survival mode. My goal is to help reduce suffering and support you in finding a healthier, more peaceful path forward.

Psychologist

I’m a licensed psychologist with more than three decades of experience in psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and trauma-informed care. My background includes extensive work with adults, adolescents, and children across private practice, medical settings, and the VA’s PTSD clinic, where I provided both treatment and disability evaluations. I completed my doctorate at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in an APA-approved Counseling Psychology program and an APA-accredited internship with broad training in assessment, psychotherapy, and multidisciplinary collaboration. I specialize in trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, dissociation, family-of-origin issues, and helping people untangle long-standing patterns that keep them stuck. My style is warm, open-minded, and direct, meeting people right where they are while helping them move toward where they want to be.
