Elizabeth Aguayo, LCSW
About me
Hello, thank you for visiting my profile and taking time to learn more about me as a therapist. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been licensed and practicing in Indiana for the past 17 years. I have felt compelled to be a compassionate listener and supporter of others throughout my life, I followed this passion by obtaining my Masters in Social Work from Loyola University of Chicago. For the past ten years I have also been Licensed as a Clinical Addictions Counselors. Connection, compassion, authenticity, and empathy are the cornerstones of my therapeutic approach. My experiences with children and adolescents have gifted me unique insight and understanding of many parenting issues including, coping with parenting children who struggle with mental health or behavioral difficulties. I enjoy supporting women as they become mothers, cope with infertility, during pregnancy, or as they manage postpartum depression or anxiety. I have worked with a wide variety of individuals in private practice, school settings, community mental health, and integrated health care settings. Supporting people of any age who are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, mood disorder, ADHD, trauma, grief, relationship issues, and health related challenges, has been very rewarding. I have had some additional training in motivational interviewing, CBT, strength based approach, mindfulness, and behavioral health care.
I understand the demands of day to day life and demanding schedules which many people balance. In order to meet the needs of my clients I offer evening and weekend appointments. I look forward to learning about your life and how I may work with you on your journey.
