Dr. Elizabeth Nyang, LCPC
About me
My name is Dr. Elizabeth Nyang. I have a masters degree in counseling from Seton Hall University and a doctorate degree in counseling psychology from the American School of Professional Psychology. I work with clients (adults and adolescents) that have issues with mental health and/ life issues. I accept clients with depression, anxiety, problems at work, problems within the family, mood disorders, and adjustment issues. I use a cognitive behavioral approach and Gestalt techniques integrated with meditation and tai chi to help clients gain insight into the root causes of their problems or parenting issues and reduce stress.
My communication style is relaxed, honest, caring and factual. When working with clients, I find that they appreciate honesty and my being able to listen with respect and without judgement. My personal acknowledgement that I am not perfect allows me to be able to form a genuine relationship with my clients by accepting them where they are in life.
I started using meditation ten years ago and began practicing Tai Chi nine years ago. Today, I integrate meditation and Tai Chi into my therapy sessions. Some of my clients enjoy doing seated tai chi movements during online counseling. Water aerobics is my passion, and I try to take a water aerobics class three times a week. After water aerobics, I enjoy going for a short swim. Exercise is how I add balance to my life. We will work together to help you find ways to resolve issues and add balance to your life. I am looking forward to working with you.

Her quietness. Her voice is calming
I am able to open up and talk to her about how I feel about things and realizing that I don’t have to be strong it’s OK. I can feel what I feel . Ideas of how to move through it easily and I’m thankful.

Dr. Nyang has been the most effective therapist that I have encountered. Her approach, motivation and intentional exercises give you a real chance to change your perspectives and shift your thinking and look within. I would recommend Dr. Nyang to anyone.

Dr. Nyang is really very patient trying to help me figure out my own feelings and how to adjust to my new normal. She offers suggestions and queries things I hadn't thought of. I'm finding value in our sessions and am working hard to grow into this new life and future. With her help I'm sure I'll get there. She is kind and deliberate with her words and gives the impression she's right here with me helping to guide me where I need to go.

Dr. Nyang is absolutely incredible. She takes the time to create scenarios where we role play to practice how to handle certain situations. She is patient and listens to everything I have to say. She is never condescending or judgmental. She gives the best advice on how to handle situations. She checks in with articles and messages during the week. I highly recommend her! :)

I've only been with Dr. Nyang for a week and she has helped me so much! She immediately gave me pointers and advice on how to handle my personal problems. I have my first appointment with her soon and I am very excited!
