About me

I appreciate the courage and strength it takes to enter into a counseling relationship and the anxiety that may accompany reaching out to a stranger I am here to support and empower you in your journey to a better life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) licensed in Illinois with over 40 years of experience in the counseling profession. I have helped clients with a wide variety of life challenges, including ADHD, abuse (including Domestic Violence and Narcissistic Abuse), Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Life Changes/Transitions, Panic and Panic Attacks, Relationship Issues, Self-esteem, Stress, and Work-related and Career Issues. It is my belief that sometimes a lack of skills keeps us stuck in life, so I also teach therapeutic life skills to help you manage the difficulties in your life. I think of it as equipping you with tools for your "life skills toolbox". I engage in individual counseling with ages 18 through 99. I specialize in serving teachers and nurses, as well as victims and survivors of domestic violence and narcissistic abuse.

I believe in everyone's ability to grow and progress, and I will join you on your journey to a more fulfilling and peaceful life. I highly respect the way each individual learns, changes, develops, and grows in their own unique way. I counsel with empathy and compassion and without judgment or condemnation. My goal is to provide a safe, peaceful, encouraging, uplifting, and respectful environment in which you can explore the challenges that interfere with your healing, growing, and achieving your goals.

My evidence-based counseling approach includes Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) from a person-centered and humanistic perspective.

I am looking forward to helping you live your best life!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Elizabeth Eugea. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

She is a very empathetic and respectful person, and she was able to understand my concerns during therapy. I liked that she offered to help me with tools and skills to learn more about my process.

Written on May 07, 2026 after therapy with Elizabeth for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting issues, self esteem, and compassion fatigue

Elizabeth has made me feel comfortable from the start. She has a warm and validating way of being and she’s helped in having a more positive approach to life and its challenges. She has great ideas and helps me come up with my own too. I feel comfortable sharing basically everything about myself with her and that honesty has helped me make more progress in my life. I see her as a trusted confidant and accountability partner.
I am so grateful for her presence in my life.
