Elizabeth Treger is wonderful to work with. She has been helping me through my issues. I couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more as a therapist who listens and is deeply intent on relieving anxieties associated with trauma.

★★★★★
I appreciate how easy it is to talk to my therapist and how she challenges me with questions and worksheets. Her insights into what I share are so informative and helpful. I was afraid of the process at first, about finding the right fit, but it's been amazing and I look forward to going and working on myself.
