Elizabeth is a Registered Clinical Social Work Intern who brings warmth, empathy, and a collaborative spirit to her work with children, adolescents, adults, and families. She earned her Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University, where she developed a strong interest in trauma-informed care and the ways meaningful therapeutic relationships can support healing across the lifespan. Elizabeth is particularly passionate about play therapy and helping children process emotions and experiences through developmentally appropriate, creative, and emotionally safe approaches.
Before becoming a therapist, Elizabeth spent a decade as an elementary school teacher in Palm Beach County. This experience gave her a deep understanding of children’s emotional, behavioral, and academic needs and continues to shape her clinical work. Her internship experience in Infant Mental Health further strengthened her ability to support young children and their caregivers during critical stages of development.
Elizabeth has a particular interest in working with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, trauma, and life transitions. She also enjoys working with adults who may be navigating anxiety, life changes, relationships, self-esteem, or the lasting impact of past experiences. Across ages and stages of life, Elizabeth believes that feeling understood, supported, and genuinely connected is an important part of the therapeutic process.
