Elizabeth Halper
Hello- I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist (Ph. D.) in Virginia. I take a practical approach to psychology and enjoy helping people solve their problems in a realistic, manageable, and efficient way. I have been practicing for more than 15 years and work primarily with adults and teens 15 years old and older. I specialize in depression, anxiety, and emotional or interpersonal difficulties. I also offer support for parenting and relationship issues. I am open-minded and believe therapy is a place and time that should be all yours. I am not judgmental of any situation. I do offer a sliding scale for certain clients, feel free to contact me with any further questions.
First session
My clients typically experience some significant improvement in their mental health within 6 sessions or less. Regardless of how acute your current mental health symptoms or situation are, I aim to help you function and feel better as quickly as possible. Therapy does not need to take forever to be effective.
Strengths
My strengths are in areas of depression, anxiety, relationship problems, parenting questions, divorce support, and other high-functioning teen/ adult issues.
Treatment methods
Psychodynamic
I utilize a practical approach to therapy but believe much of our present-day behaviors are shaped by historic events and relationships. Addressing both the here and now as well as the origin of dysfunction provides a road to both immediate and long-term psychological health.
