Liz has been exactly the patient, empathetic, kind voice I have needed while I'm processing and working towards a better version of my life and myself. Her approach is gentle while also being challenging - which is exactly what I needed.

Liz is an absolutely phenomenal person, and a very professional therapist. I've been working with her these past few months and I could not have picked a better one if I tried, she completely understands my issues and helps me connect a lot of dots that I never was able to before. I'm not completely done with therapy at this point (nor do I know if/when I will be) but for as long as I am able, Liz will always be my therapist.

Liz Gray brings both professionalism and a personal touch to her therapy sessions. She works with clients on their timelines and offers constructive tools or suggestions to assist the client in finding their own path out of problematic situations. I can highly recommend Liz as a remote therapist on the teencounseling.com site.

Working with Liz has made such a difference in my life. She is a compassionate, knowledgeable and highly skilled therapist. In a short amount of time, she helped me work through childhood trauma with powerful techniques, leaving me feeling, empowered, confident, and resilient. I am deeply grateful and I highly recommend her

Written on Feb 15, 2023 after therapy with Liz for 8 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, and self esteem

When I met Liz, I was in a very dark place mentally. I was isolated and lonely and having a lot of negative thoughts regarding my value, my appearance and capabilities. During our sessions together, Liz has helped me process and challenge these thoughts. I am in a much better head space today thanks to Liz helping guide me and teach me new methods for coping with stress. She made me think in ways I would not have on my own which really helped me process emotions and thoughts, navigate situations that I was worried about and manage the anxiety I was experiencing. I am really grateful to her and am so glad I signed up for help. Thanks Liz.

Liz has been fabulous. She's a wonderful listener and really takes her time to process what you're saying and respond with helpful and thoughtful suggestions. And she had a wide range of help for me- from dealing with a suicidal family member to normal work stress. This was my first time with therapy and I know if I need to come back to get more help, I will definitely be reaching out to her.

Liz is just simply amazing. You can tell she has genuine passion and knowledge about her career. Every session I have with her is great. She listens to everything I say and validates my feelings while also giving me tools to work through my problems. Her delivery is excellent- caring, neutral, and supportive. She is also graciously flexible with scheduling which I appreciate so much. If you had bad experiences with therapists in the past, she is the right one for you.

She seems like someone who genuinely cares

Written on Dec 09, 2022 after therapy with Liz for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and career difficulties

Liz is an active listener. She is very calm and even keel. She is compassionate and understanding. I love the little phrases she gives that can be reminders for later on when I feel overwhelmed or anxious. Her responses and advice are not reactive, she considers her words carefully. I would recommend her to anyone!

Dude… Liz is awesome. I can’t express enough how grateful I am that we were able to connect! I recently heard from a colleague of mine that he had a horrible teencounseling.com experience and I could NOT relate at all. Liz is in my area, so I don’t need to explain that much which is helpful. She just gets it. I am in the social work field and I genuinely feel like she understands the issues that I bring up and want to piece apart. She is great at offering alternatives to my methods of thinking that I haven’t considered, and offers nuances that are gentle yet transformative. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

Amazing. Literally didn’t think I’d come on here and find a person who talks with me and get deep into why I feel certain things and open me up to different way and she did it. All I can say is amazing.

Liz has helped me through one of the darkest periods of my life, and I am nothing but thankful for my experience with her. She has given me tools to help combat the negative symptoms I experience from my trauma, is a fantastic listener, and does a good job of directing the session if you are having trouble knowing what to talk about/bring up

Scheduling can be difficult. Hard to get weekly especially because that is what is billed. If therapist needs to reschedule can maybe get 2 times in a month.
