LCSW-C, 5 years of experience
Hi, I'm Elizabeth, Do you have goals you would like to work on but feel stuck or unsure where to start? Do you want to improve your relationships with your body and/or food? I specialize in working with people who want to improve their relationships with food and their bodies. I also focus on working with individuals with substance use disorders and co-occurring disorders. I have a background in DBT, inpatient settings, substance abuse treatment centers, and private practice. I am HAES aligned and a member of the Association for Size Diversity and Health. I am also a member of the pro-choice therapists' directory.
During our first session I strive to create a warm and inviting space for you to feel comfortable with opening up about what brings you to therapy.
I believe that my collaborative approach to therapy is one of my biggest strengths. I am compassionate and empathetic. I believe that holding space with someone is one of the most powerful aspects of the therapeutic relationship.
I am particularly focused on eating disorders, substance use disorders, and co-occurring disorders.
I have experience co-facilitating DBT skills groups. In an individual setting I will provide psychoeudcation on skills that would benefit each client. We will practice the skills in session.
