Over the past 10 years, Elizabeth has helped thousands of people live healthier and happier lives. She truly loves helping others heal their pain, find joy and maximize their potential. Therapy is Elizabeth’s life passion- she uses a warm, compassionate and accepting approach to treat each person with the care they deserve.

Elizabeth uses science backed techniques & teaches new skills while providing insight on unconscious thought processes that may be influencing your behaviors, thoughts and emotions. Therapy with Elizabeth can help you to help you learn to care for yourself, even if you have never truly been cared for in the way that you deserve to be. Elizabeth understands that when people experience neglect or abuse they often have a tendency to abuse or neglect themselves. She helps people learn healthier patterns of responding to themselves, heal their pain and enjoy their lives to the fullest. The goal is never to keep people in therapy indefinitely, but instead to help people gain insight, learn new tools, maximize their potential and live life happily.

Because many people experience memory and concentration issues when they are dealing with mental health issues, Elizabeth ends many sessions with a secure message full of practical information discussed during that session.

Therapy sessions are currently offered via phone and video to residents all across the state of Florida. Evening and Weekend Sessions are available.

Elizabeth also provides “walk and talk” therapy in Miami. Walk and talk sessions are conducted in Brickell Key or Bayfront Park Miami- these sessions consist of slow paced walking while talking through therapeutic concerns. Walk and talk sessions can help to integrate the body and mind, provide exercise, exposure to nature, in person connection and vitamin D from sunshine. COVID-19 precautions are taken as indicated by the CDC.

A specialized and tailored approach is employed to meet each person’s unique needs. During therapy sessions Elizabeth allows people the space and time to process painful emotional experiences in order to move past them.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is the primary type of therapy used in sessions. It offers practical techniques and strategies that can be used to better manage emotions, improve relationships and tolerate difficult situations. This type of therapy is similar to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in many ways and helps to illuminate the connection between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. It is often helpful with anxiety, depression, stress, life changes, personality disorders, narcissism and healing from trauma.

Elizabeth also address the mind-body connection and assists individuals in re-training their nervous system. Mind body work may focus on:
– Relaxation strategies
– Nutrition & Exercise that may support mental health
– Meditation, Breathwork, Guided Imagery and Mindfulness practices

Psychotherapy provides a nonjudgmental, unbiased, comfortable space to discuss and process your thoughts, feelings, life circumstances and behaviors. Therapy can teach you new techniques for communication, as well as different ways of thinking and actions that can positively impact your mental health.
