Great to meet you!

I'm Lizzie! I have been providing therapy for 10 years to individuals of all ages and backgrounds. I completed my bachelor's in Psychology in 2012 and my master's in Mental Health Counseling in 2015 from Waynesburg University. After growing up in southwestern Pennsylvania, I moved to Tennessee in 2019 and earned my LPC/MHSP. I am certified in TF-CBT and EMDR. I enjoy remaining solution-focused in reaching client goals and providing a safe/comforting environment to explore emotions.

My approach to therapy

My approach is solution-focused with a realistic approach to assist clients in setting attainable goals to reach their overall mental/emotional goals. I challenge my clients to face difficult emotions and memories in a supportive manner to achieve life-changing results, while also serving as a calming space to release thoughts and feelings.l

What you can expect from me

A better understanding of your life experiences and their impact on your overall mental health. In addition, you will walk way with sustainable coping skills and techniques to successfully manage your mental health on a daily basis.
