About
Liz is a former athlete turned therapist who brings both discipline and deep compassion into her work. In her teens and early twenties, she trained for an Olympic team in judo before spending over a decade in the fitness industry and ultimately finding her calling as a therapist. While she didn’t take home Olympic gold, she brings a heart of gold into her work and life.
Liz identifies as a “recovering perfectionist” and understands firsthand the impact of grief, burnout, anxiety, and depression. These lived experiences shape her grounded, authentic, and deeply human approach to therapy with both individuals and couples.
She has a special passion for working with couples and co-parents. Her own relationship challenges sparked a deep interest in attachment, communication, and relationship dynamics, leading her to pursue advanced training in couples work. As a co-parent to her young son, she brings both professional insight and real-life experience to the families she supports.
Liz works with couples and co-parents together and individually — helping partners reconnect when possible and guiding families through separation or divorce in ways that prioritize emotional health and reduce trauma for children. She works with couples of all orientations and is LGBTQ+ affirming.
In short, Liz specializes in couples therapy, parenting and co-parenting support, grief & loss, anxiety, depression, complex trauma, identity issues and perfectionism.
Therapeutic Approach
Liz takes an integrative approach to therapy, blending relational, attachment-informed, and psychodynamic techniques. When appropriate, she incorporates strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to provide practical tools for change.
At the core of her work, Liz prioritizes a strong, meaningful connection between therapist and client—creating a safe space for exploration, healing, and personal growth. Therapy is tailored to each client’s unique history, experiences, and goals, with the duration of treatment evolving based on individual needs and progress.
