About Liz

 

HI, I’M LIZ.  I AM SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE!

Thank you for visiting my website. I hope to help you find out more about me and how I may be of help to you. Here’s what I think is important for you to know.

As a naturally curious person and a skilled listener, our time together will be patient focused and interactive.  My goal is to guide you to reflective thinking, processing, and positive action towards self-care.

I believe in getting to know my clients in a meaningful way so that I can provide compassionate and individualized care. With that said, my therapeutic approach is always strength-based. I also incorporate aspects of interpersonal therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and coaching in my work with clients.

In my personal life, I am a wife, mother, and dog lover.  I enjoy spending time with my husband, daughter, and our beagle, Charlie. I find enjoyment taking walks with my family, participating in yoga and spinning classes, baking cupcakes, traveling to new places, and relaxing on the beaches in Maine.

I look forward to working with you!
