Lizzie

“My approach to therapy is to create a safe environment where you and your goals feel supported. Having worked with a variety of clients, I’ve found that painful experiences are a consistent factor in causing difficulties. My aim is to help people overcome the barriers these experiences create to live a satisfying life.”

Therapeutic Approach

While my work always sits within a DBT framework, my approach is to work with awareness of underlying trauma and the fact that anxiety and depression are often interwoven features that can also be helped with the DBT model and its skills.
