About Elizabeth
I am a warm, well-rounded, resourceful, and seasoned Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts with 16 years of experience in the field (six of which are at Thriveworks). I have graduate degrees from Harvard and UMass Boston.
I am an innovative, accessible helper with experience helping a wide variety of individuals. I help clients see how physical and mental health are interconnected, and I help them work through stuck thinking, like ambivalence, rumination, and spiral thinking, teaching tools for change. I rely on psychological theories and evidence-based modalities.
I am straightforward and easy to talk with, emotionally and intellectually present during sessions, and will give it my all. I am relentless in helping and I do my best in getting my clients to a better place.

"Caring and creative licensed professional with over 20 years' combined experience in education, mental health, and healthcare sectors, bringing together a uniquely diverse set of clinical and evaluative skills in order to promote optimal human development and functioning. "
