Hi, I'm Elizabeth. I'm an LCSW with 10+ years of experience helping clients work towards their life goals.
Life today can be very stressful. We play many roles and we are constantly bombarded with information. We have many responsibilities and too little time. Sometimes it's hard to talk to your friends because they're going through the same thing and you don't want to burden them.

Frequently asked questions
Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in East Islip
Finding the right therapist in East Islip starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who has experience in those areas. In Suffolk County, common provider types include licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), and psychologists, each with different training backgrounds. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and whether they might be a good match.
Practical details matter, too. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions in the East Islip area or virtual appointments from home, and what days and times work with your schedule. If you're considering couples or family therapy, confirm that the provider offers those formats. A free phone consultation — when available — can help you get a sense of a provider's style before committing to a full session.
Therapy on Long Island can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in East Islip who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
