About
Liz
Mental health is vital at every stage of life, and I firmly believe that every person deserves access to compassionate, high-quality care. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that healing is a true partnership. You are the absolute expert on your own life, lived experiences, and goals; my role is to offer the guidance, tools, and support needed to help you navigate your unique path. In our work together, I utilize evidence-based therapeutic approaches designed to help you recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns. Rather than avoiding difficult experiences, we will focus on building your capacity to sit with and effectively manage uncomfortable emotions. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel empowered to develop resilience, gain self-insight, and create meaningful, lasting change.
When I’m off the clock, you’ll usually find me spending quality time with my spouse and our three kids, who keep life wonderfully chaotic and fun. I’m a big fan of unwinding with a good Netflix binge or diving headfirst into a great book. As a former soccer player, I’ve traded the competitive pitch for everyday life, but I still love the energy, teamwork, and quick thinking that comes with the sport.
