As a licensed therapist in Florida with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and life transitions. I offer compassionate support for those experiencing isolation, communication difficulties, attachment issues, and personal growth obstacles.
My approach is deeply empathetic and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I work collaboratively with clients across diverse backgrounds, including young adults, those exploring relationship dynamics, and individuals processing complex family experiences. I'm particularly skilled in supporting clients through mood disorders, trauma recovery, body image concerns, and identity exploration.
I create a safe, affirming space where clients can explore their innermost challenges, develop stronger self-understanding, and cultivate meaningful personal transformation. My therapeutic style emphasizes respect, authenticity, and client-centered healing, helping individuals build resilience and discover their inherent strengths.

Elisabeth helped me out of a really dark in my life (as most therapists do of course), but she genuinely made me feel comfortable and excited to talk at each of my appointments. She felt like a good friend I could vent to and then I trusted her enough to give me the best direction to take. She gave me the best tools that I could learn from in order to live life more happily and I am so thankful to her. If you have her recommended to you, please feel free to give her a try! She’s an angel!

I've spent three wonderfully challenging months talking with Elisabeth while I've gone through some big life changes. She helped me feel heard, accepted and understood in every single session we had. Elisabeth asked me thoughtful questions that were difficult to answer at times, but it was exactly what I needed to work through my issues. She is very kind, non-judgmental, and helped me feel confident in the life I want to live. I'm grateful for Elisabeth and will recommend her to anyone.

I appreciate all Elisabeth has done for me during my few months working with her. She is an excellent listener and thoughtful in her feedback. She has helped me grow by gently reminding me of what I already know through past experiences and challenging my way of thinking in new situations. Every week, I am more open to putting myself into vulnerable situations and eliminating guilty feelings around situations in which I have no control.
