She’s a lovely human being

Elizabeth has been extremely helpful in supporting me while I unpack a lot of "stuff" - Her patience and expertise have been very much appreciated. Very professional and very engaged in my healing, and helping me build a toolbox to handle a variety of things that I've struggled with over the years. Truly grateful BetterHelp has made therapy accessible for those of us who need help - and that's ALL OF US.

Elizabeth was very kind and supportive. She offered tips to help me cope with challenging situations and gave me strength and courage to stay calm during rough times. I highly recommend her for support, guidance and encouragement.

Elizabeth is knowledgeable, a calm and clear communicator, and I feel like she is very present during our sessions. I appreciate her communication style and the way she presents questions, and how she seems to guide our time in a way that both allows me to focus my thoughts but also maximizes how we use the sessions.

An excellent listener and absorber of emotionally complex topics. Her input is well thought out and obviously informed.

She’s great, I’ve only had 3 sessions but she listens when I need it, she gives me great advice and is always positive.

This is my first time trying therapy and Elizabeth has been extremely helpful and wonderful to speak too.

I have been on BetterHelp for a little over a year now and Elizabeth is the reason I keep renewing my membership. Her unwavering support and guidance have become an integral part of my life, and I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like without her by my side.

Elizabeth has a way of asking questions that make you think and gets to the bottom of what it is I am doing or needing to do. She has a no nonsense approach that is exactly what I needed. She has been good at sharing materials/articles that are relevant to me. She is a solid skilled therapist.

Elizabeth is always a joy to talk to. Not only is she very professional and insightful when you present her with your situations and troubles, but she just genuinely seems like a good person who wants to help you. She navigates sessions in such a way that if you have a pressing issue on your mind that you want to discuss she will allow you to release that stress and have a more open discussion type session. At the same time if you don’t have much specifically to talk about that day she will work through her prepared discussion topics which target the overarching issues that have been identified as needing worked on.

I have only had a few sessions with Elizabeth, but could tell almost immediately that she was skilled in her profession. The same day of our initial meeting, she sent me additional reading materials and a workbook that she thought could be useful for me in my situation. She read what I shared prior to our initial meeting so she was already familiar with the help that I was looking for when we first spoke. She asks me specific questions so she can gain a better understanding of my situation and she offers realistic solutions. I feel like she really does listen to and addresses my concerns which I have not felt with all therapists. She's very engaged and makes you feel like you really are being supported. I would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone seeking therapy. I chose Elizabeth based on her extensive expertise and she demonstrated that to me over our limited, but helpful interactions.

Elizabeth has helped me through tough health issues and anxiety. She is a good listener and she offers helpful strategies to cope with anxiety and stressors in life.

Elizabeth is intelligent and caring. She gives excellent advice and is great at discerning when to give advice and when to simply listen. She is by far one of the best therapists I have ever had and I would definitely reccomend her!

Elizabeth is great- she quickly hones in on the issues at hand and is incredibly empathetic.

Elizabeth is amazing, she’s been so helpful and really attentive to my therapy needs and situation. It’s been a great experience!

My first phone session with Elizabeth went well. She gave me good tools to handle my problem.

I was not doing good. My depression was so bad that I was ideating and even trying suicide. Elizabeth saved my life. She quickly identified the direness of my situation. And she knew exactly how to help me. I recently celebrated my 35th birthday and this is possible because of Elizabeth. Elizabeth has so much valuable experience in the field, she guided me through terrible experiences with psychiatrists and helped me identify what a good psychiatrist looks like. I’ve been told by friends and family to seek professional help all my life. And when I finally did, I discovered the mental health industry is hard to navigate. The experience of going through disappointing experiences with therapists and psychiatrist is a discouraging one. There are times I felt I was doing something wrong and felt unheard. I was desperately trying to call out for help and was being told you’re fine. Elizabeth listened to my distress call. She held tight to me in my darkest days, constantly checking in on me and making sure I was safe. Since finding Elizabeth, I have now been diagnosed by a psychiatrist for Bipolar Disorder. I am now taking lithium for the manic episodes and Effexor for the depression. I am balanced and living my best life now. This is possible because of Elizabeth. I’d like Elizabeth to stay my therapist for the rest of my life. If such a thing was possible. Thank you Elizabeth, you have changed my life for the better, I am so grateful to you.

Elizabeth has been a great woman to speak with. I don't feel judged at all and can tell her everything going on. She really is there to listen to me and help me through my struggles. I'm so excited we matched...I wouldn't wanna talk to anyone else.

Elizabeth has helped me in the two sessions we have met. I think she is knowledgeable and she has given me some great tips and help.

She’s been great!

She is very forthright and knowledgeable. Also makes the effort to make sure I feel comfortable

She’s great. Really listens to me

Really communicative and appreciate her advice

I was feeling hopeless with therapy after my previous experiences. I was feeling like I would never get better. Elizabeth gave me hope and assurance again. She listened to what was going on with me and studied my better help test results. She helped me identify I have bipolar disorder and gave me step by step instructions to find a psychiatrist. Due to my high test results, she informed me that the recommended treatment does involve medication. I am so grateful to have found an experienced expert and I finally feel like I am in good hands. Elizabeth is also a master of communication, she knows how to build a connection, how to be companionate and informative at the same time. I look forward to our sessions every week, and I know, I am heading the right direction to get treatment.

Elizabeth has been great. She has provided necessary information to make me feel safe and supported during our conversations and between messages. She checks in regularly and replies timely. I am excited to continue working with her.

After only a few sessions Elizabeth helped me identify some underlying fears behind my symptoms and gave me lots of helpful methods to work on them. Elizabeth is very attentive, reliable and professional and I strongly recommend working with her!
