Hi, I'm Elizabeth. I'm an LCSW with 10+ years of experience helping clients work towards their life goals.
Life today can be very stressful. We play many roles and we are constantly bombarded with information. We have many responsibilities and too little time. Sometimes it's hard to talk to your friends because they're going through the same thing and you don't want to burden them.
I am a Double Board-Certified nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health and family health. As a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner, I use an integrative and holistic approach to mental health. As a family nurse practitioner, I take into consideration how physical health impacts mood and relationships. I employ evidence-based medication management. Together, we can pinpoint what's causing you stress and navigate towards a balanced state. I employ brief supportive psychotherapy in every session to help patients manage their emotions, particularly those dealing with chronic illnesses or experiencing high levels of stress. By offering empathy and validation, I aim to strengthen coping mechanisms, boost resilience, and enhance overall mental well-being.
I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety, and in working with women as they navigate life transitions like college/graduate school, relationships, marriage and new parenthood.
Through an approach of curiosity, collaboration, and genuine care, I will work with you to explore patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting that get in the way of your goals. Together, we will discover the origin of long-held self-limiting beliefs and stories whether rooted in past experiences of trauma, attachment wounds or other difficult circumstances. We will identify your triggers and blind spots for these patterns and help you integrate new responses so that you can make intentional choices that are in line with your values and vision for yourself. My hope is that through our work, you will access your authentic voice allowing your innate courage, creativity and wisdom to guide your way.
Whether working with clients through current stresses or healing from past wounds, I use a psychodynamic lens and often integrate somatic and mindfulness interventions to help clients cultivate ease, calm and clarity. I consider therapy a sacred process, and am honored to support each of my clients on their unique journey.
"To be more fully connected is to be more fully oneself" Hi, I am a bilingual (Mandarin) therapist in NYC and surrounding area with over 13 years of clinical experience supporting children, couples, and families. My client-centered approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s needs. I have worked with diverse populations in child welfare, psychiatric centers, and the education system, helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Selective Mutism and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, gain clarity, and find greater meaning and fulfillment in life

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Rego Park, NY
Searching for therapists in Rego Park starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and details about how they structure sessions. A bio that mentions approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care can help you understand whether a therapist’s training fits your needs.
Rego Park has access to therapists in nearby Queens neighborhoods like Forest Hills, Elmhurst, and Corona, but local appointment times may vary. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping your search close to home. Consider whether you prefer an in-person office, a virtual appointment, evening availability, or a therapist who offers a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading therapist profiles can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first appointment.
Therapy in Rego Park can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details for an estimated session cost, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
