Grief Group

Description

This group is for any adult grieving a relatively recent loss, within the last couple of years, and who truly feel they could benefit from having people to talk to and listen to who are grieving as well. We will meet weekly for a minimum of 10 weeks with the potential for the group to be ongoing. The group will provide a safe and comforting space for people to have the opportunity to express themselves through creative activities, in addition to open ended time for sharing with others.

Group Therapist

"Working with Liz has changed my life in ways I never imagined possible. She is an incredibly adaptable therapist in terms of the modalities she uses in sessions, as well as her ability to meet clients where they are....Liz strikes that fine balance between being patient, kind, and sensitive in sessions, while at the same time pushing you to grow through your challenges to reach your full potential. My view of the world is much brighter after having worked with Liz; more importantly, so, too is the way I see and understand myself." (K.B.-Former client)

Her work with individuals and couples resides on a broad foundation, considering not only that our past personal experiences help determine our current reactions and patterns, but also taking into account what we can learn from the larger context of cultural and societal legacies and influences. She follows the tenets of powerfully effective modalities and theoretical approaches including attachment theory, humanistic, compassion-focused, psychodynamic, acceptance/commitment, meditative/mindfulness, Gestalt, and family systems. Her approach is non-judgmental and non-pathologizing, helping clients to see their selves, emotions and behaviors in a new light, while nurturing painful emotions instead of branding them as negative or dysfunctional. Through taking a leadership role in a collaborative process, clients have the opportunity to experience the confidence of becoming an empowered, compassionate, capable participant, leading the way on their own path toward healing and new perspectives.

Elizabeth's approach is warm and welcoming and highly respects the views and ideas of her clients. She is available for video or phone sessions, where she encourages each client to create a comforting, private, and safe space to talk.
