Elizabeth is certified in EMDR, trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and other evidence-based therapies. CBT examines thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors and shifts them to healthier habits. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (eye movement) to desensitize and reprocess trauma and other disturbances. Elizabeth also uses breathing exercises and grounding tools that can be practiced in stressful situations, in addition to creative expression through journaling and other activities. These approaches supports clients to find greater well-being and freedom from limiting behaviors, thoughts, and beliefs.

Elizabeth's style is warm, thoughtful, and non-judgmental. When clients start therapy Elizabeth will establish a strong relationship where clients feel safe and heard. She works to understand the client's past history and to set goals and objectives together.
