"Know Thyself" Socrates, a philosopher, emphasized the importance of knowing your true self. I am a Licensed Therapist in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Kentucky with over 20 years of counseling experience. You have taken the first step to learn more about yourself and facilitate change. If you are ready to take that step, I invite you to schedule a first-time appointment. You may call +1 (786) 755-1863 or email: reception+Elizabeth14658@growtherapy.com There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn't. “Self-care is how you take your power back.” John Green.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions and reason(s) for therapy. Limits to confidentiality and expectations for therapy are discussed. Then, talk about the specific challenges you're facing. Once this is achieved, I create a tailored plan to work with you in follow-up sessions. There is time for questions and weekly appointments are scheduled.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

One of my biggest strengths is working with clients with anxiety and depression. Having worked with a diversity of clients, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have utilized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for many years and have found it a useful treatment for clients with anxiety and depression. This treatment modality helps clients identify and change negative schemata in their lives that cause depression and anxiety. The strategies in CBT help the client to cope with past negative events.
