"Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?"--Mary Oliver
My name is Liz Epperson and I am a Bilingual (Spanish & English) Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9 years of experience working with individuals and families. My training & experience have focused largely upon the area of trauma and I have a particular passion for working with women and girls who are survivors of sexual violence on issues related to trauma/abuse and self-esteem. Additionally, I have worked extensively with diverse clients dealing with various issues such as depression, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting challenges, and grief. I have also worked with individuals on changing health behaviors related to weight loss, diabetes management and healthy lifestyle choices.
I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness-based treatment approaches, motivational interviewing, solution-focused brief therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques. Ultimately, I tailor my counseling to each individual's needs and goals and I strive to always provide a compassionate and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship. I appreciate and request feedback from clients on the effectiveness of counseling techniques to always keep the client's needs as our main focus.
It is an honor and a privilege to bear witness to each individual's change process. It takes a great deal of courage to reach out for support and my greatest hope as your therapist is that we can work together to support you in achieving your goals and creating the life you want.
I look forward to accompanying you on your journey.Â
