Elizabeth Morris
Hello, I'm Elizabeth. As a therapist over the last 13 years I have worked with a wide variety of people as an advocate and an ally in helping them heal and grow through the therapy process. Beginning to look for a therapist can bring on anxiety, but know that taking this step is already a major sign of growth. I help work through the chaos inside one's head to identify what are the actual causes of anxiety, stress, and depression. In sessions it can be a time to process emotions, but more importantly, to identify the cause of stressors and what is and is not in your control. I help people learn to set boundaries, work on self-care, and coping skills, and be true to their authentic selves. I have always been an advocate for those that don't feel that their voices are heard including: LGBTQIA+ individuals, TBI survivors, Neurodivergent individuals, parents, college students, healthcare workers, teachers and individuals looking to find their self-worth. My approach starts with a person-centered mindset and by working together we will decide which therapeutic techniques will work best for you as an individual.

First session
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and for me to gather information of your background, why you're seeking therapy, and goals you may have for therapy. I discuss the techniques I could use that may benefit you and allow you to ask any questions. I hope clients can come in knowing that they can relax and know the hour is dedicated to themselves and discussing their needs for therapy.
Strengths
I have always been described as a very empathetic and compassionate therapist, coming from a place of non-judgment and unconditional positive regard. I tailor my sessions to fit each person's individual needs and never come to a session with a generic approach. I take time to learn about the people I work with and what makes them full of joy and feel authentic. Together we will work to make the therapy process a time of healing and a time of growth.
Ideal clients
I work with a wide variety of adult clients who are ready to utilize therapy to work on what they want to work on. The clients I see are motivated to improve their own mental health and open to different tactics that would fit them the best.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I use a variety of modalities depending on the need of each client, but base my practice on Person-centered therapy. I find that focusing on creating a space for clients to feel safe to explore their emotions and goals in a nonjudgmental setting, is a good basis of effective therapy.
