I received my Bachelors degree in Psychology at Boston University and my Masters degree in Social Work at New York University.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 29 years.

I have worked in a variety of settings, including a large outpatient mental health center and schools.

I have lived in 6 different states, including the northeast, the midwest, and the south.

I have seen clients from all kinds of backgrounds.

I am licensed in the states of NJ & TX.

I SEE CLIENTS AGES 18 AND UP.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies from Texas A&M University (2009) and a Master's in School Counseling from Sam Houston State University (2012).

Like many clients, I learned at a young age that life could be difficult. I have lost many loved ones, including a parent and sibling, to illness, accident, and addiction. These experiences have given me empathy for others as they endure their trials.

I have a passion for creating a collaborative, supportive environment for personal growth and healing. I believe that seeking therapy is a profound act of self-respect and care, and my goal is to provide a space where you feel truly heard and valued. Together, we can navigate the challenges of life, uncovering clarity and direction in the midst of complexity. My approach is rooted in fostering a comfortable, nonjudgmental atmosphere where your story can unfold, and your goals can take center stage.

Taking the step to seek support isn’t easy, and I want to honor the courage it takes to be here. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Life Coach, and retired Army veteran who believes caring for your mental health is essential to living a balanced, fulfilling life. I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with themselves. I work with teens and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or major life transitions, and I strive to meet you with respect, compassion, and understanding.

Despite what ol’ Forrest Gump shared with us while sitting on a park bench, life isn’t always a box of chocolates. Sometimes, it can feel more like a box of rocks. You might feel overwhelmed, stuck, irritated, anxious, depressed, alone, misunderstood, or frustrated with your circumstances and the burdens you carry. You may struggle to understand yourself or those you love, or wonder if there’s something wrong with you, or the world around you. You might ask yourself, What is the purpose of all this? What am I supposed to do? How can I find happiness and peace?

Let’s start by putting down that box of rocks. You don’t have to carry it alone. There are answers, and I am here to help you explore these questions. Therapy offers a safe space where, together, we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and subconscious mind, while noticing your personal strengths- strengths that make you unique, accomplished, and capable.

In a life that may seem uncertain, one thing remains true: there is hope, joy, and peace for you-and it’s within your grasp. I congratulate you on your courage and commitment to finding the change you seek. As an integrative, trauma-informed therapist, I would be honored to be part of your healing journey. The answers may be closer than they appear.

I am passionate about helping individuals overcome mental and emotional obstacles and believe that therapy should be a collaborative experience. With a focus on sexual trauma, PTSD, LGBTQIA+, and serious and persistent mental illness, I am equipped to provide comprehensive mental health services to adults of any age. In addition to my clinical work, I am an animal lover and avid reader, and I bring these passions into my therapeutic approach. I welcome clients from all walks of life, including those who practice polyamory, open relationships, or other non-traditional relationship dynamics. Kink-friendly.

Hi, I’m Elizabeth. I work with women and teen girls ages 15+ experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, burnout, menopause, and major life transitions.

My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused and strength-based approaches, and Christian counseling when desired. I also incorporate other evidence-based strategies to help you recognize patterns, manage difficult emotions, build healthier boundaries, and feel more confident in your daily life.

I especially enjoy working with women who spend so much time caring for others that they begin to feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from themselves.

Therapy is available in English and Spanish. Together, we will focus on helping you feel more grounded, supported, and better equipped to move forward.
