Liza Chigos, LPC, LPCC
About me
I am a clinical counselor licensed in Minnesota and Virginia with over 5 years of experience working with a wide array of people. I work with people who experience a wide range of symptoms and concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I have also worked with many people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse. A special interest is workforce protection, working with first responders and hospital staff.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, Adlerian, psychodynamic, and Family Systems. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
Evening and weekend hours, as available.
I look forward to working with you!
