Preferred contact method is email, please check your junk for my reply! I feel so fortunate to have found a career that I love, and cherish! My practice came about in the form of an epiphany one day, as I sat on the AIDS unit in NYC as a volunteer. As I listened to a man share his story, I realized that he had not been celebrated for his many talents, but had been ostracized for having AIDS. I decided that my philosophy was going to be-"our differences are what make us beautiful, we should all be celebrated for our uniqueness." This is the philosophy I live by daily.

Elizabeth specializes in working with adults who experience stress, anxiety and/or depression, are high achievers (or would like to be), legal system workers, healthcare workers, first responders, law enforcement, athletes, entrepreneurs and military members. Her clients generally report feeling “burned out”, “stuck”, “lost”, “misdirected” and/or have anxiety about the future.

Elizabeth helps them to gain focus, find joy, purpose and sense of control.

There are universal experiences that can cause us to question everything we have learned about who we are within ourselves and in connection to others. It’s in these times it can be difficult to meet life on life’s terms; when looking on the bright side, persistence and grit no longer get us through the day. This has been especially true this past couple of years. The most profound change being our ability to be connected to each other and having shared experiences to look forward to.

Does it feel like no one understands what you’re going through right now? Maybe they seem to have “moved on” from a loss you both experienced, and now you’re left grappling with it on your own. Perhaps life has changed in another big way recently—retirement, divorce, or a job change—and no one really gets the sense of uncertainty, sadness, or stress you feel. You don’t see the meaning and purpose you used to in your life and you’re not sure if you can ever feel happy (or even just comfortable) again. You’ve realized you could use some support but aren’t even sure what that can look like.
