About me

I am a family and marriage counselor licensed in California with over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist both privately and in the clinic setting. I have had the honor of working with teens and their parents. One thing I have learned in my experience is teens are wonderfully challenging and have taught me how to be a better therapist. I enjoy this population as they keep me updated on the latest trends and are honest in their feelings once you have earned their trust. My preferred approach is Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution Focused.

My counseling style is warm and interactive and I may challenge clients at times where we both agree may be barriers to moving forward. I do not give advice to clients, but assist them in finding what works for them.

Psychotherapy involves hard work, being true to yourself and awareness that real change is done outside of the therapeutic relationship. "Anything you work hard for, you appreciate more."

I look forward to working with you!

This is my first experience with therapy for myself. I have often encouraged others in my line of work to seek therapy and I also knew going in that you get what you give when it comes to therapy. My experience with Elizabeth has been eye opening! She really listens to me and offers me to explore and really challenge my reflective thinking beyond what I have ever been able to do on my own! Most of the time, I don't want the time to run out! So because my time is limited, I also use the reflection tool and journaling along with and when you share those with your therapist, she again, responds and offers more insight! What an amazing experience!

Elizabeth is perfect. My wife and I have had many counselors in the past and we finally feel we have found a perfect fit. She is a therapist who understands and shows understanding for both of us without bias. She shares her personal experience and testimony that is helping us overcome challenges in our life and marriage. Would highly recommend!
