Elizabeth honors and respects the vulnerability it takes to reach out for therapy.  Her primary goal is to provide a non-judgmental and empathetic space where clients can feel safe and open.

 

Elizabeth believes in a collaborative approach in therapy where she and the client work together to develop goals, understand challenges, and build upon his/her/their strengths.   She believes in the importance of the relationship and integrates an interpersonal approach while also incorporating concrete skills to help the client manage their emotions and thought processes.  Elizabeth primarily uses CBT, DBT, EMDR, and mindfulness skills.

​

Elizabeth received her undergraduate degree from Wake Forest University and obtained a Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University.  She has been in the clinical field for over 18 years and has worked in a variety of clinical settings, including college counseling, residential treatment, and outpatient private practice. 

 

Elizabeth has experience working with college-age populations and adults.  Elizabeth offers individual counseling for adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression/mood disorders, OCD, suicidal thoughts, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions.

 

Elizabeth loves being a part of the Community Counseling Center and strongly believes in the mission to provide therapy for all.
