Welcome, my name is Elizabeth Greene (Liz) and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Virginia. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me. I hold a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lamar University. I have worked in the mental health profession with diverse populations and ages for over 17 years.

You are my ideal client if you are seeking to understand Relationships; the one with your inner-self and/or your relationship with others by seeking to improve various types of relationships such as: Marriage/Couples/Intimate (sexual/non-sexual), Interpersonal, Professional (performance anxiety/high-pressure stress), and Family Relationships. My ideal clientele also includes those heavily impacted by Military related issues, Athletes struggling with performance anxiety, burnout, motivation, & confidence and others seeking Mental and Emotional Wellness support during life’s difficult times & transitions.

Seeking help can feel like a big step, especially if you've been managing on your own for a long time. I'm a board-certified psychiatrist offering telehealth medication management for adults across Virginia and Pennsylvania — with evening and weekend appointments, so care fits into your life instead of competing with it.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar and mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders including BPD, chronic suicidal ideation, and burnout. Many of my patients are high-functioning professionals who appear fine on the outside but feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or not like themselves. I have a special focus on women's mental health, including PMDD, postpartum depression and anxiety, and mood changes through perimenopause.

My approach is evidence-based, collaborative, and practical. I provide medication management within a broader therapeutic framework, drawing on CBT and supportive therapy — our sessions go beyond symptom checks. Care begins with a thorough evaluation, followed by treatment tailored to you, coping skills, and close follow-up. You'll always understand the why behind your treatment; medication is one tool, never the whole plan.

I also welcome patients who prefer care in Urdu, Punjabi, or Hindi. If you're ready, I'd be glad to help you take the next step.

As a Gen-X therapist, I am often described as highly relatable. Not too old, not too young...just right. I enjoy working with persons of all ages, all stages, all walks of life. I am a mother, sister, daughter, aunt, friend. I am a lifelong learner. I am a lover of art, nature, animals, travel, cooking, laughter and optimism. I have a deep love and respect for my profession and feel honored and so very lucky to be able to do this precious work!
