About me

Hello and welcome. I am a dually Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor working in the state of Indiana. I consider it my honor to walk this journey with you and thank you for entrusting me with this opportunity. I have been fortunate to serve as a therapist in a variety of settings for nearly two decades. My therapeutic approach can best be describes as person-centered and holistic. I am trained in Illness Management and Recovery, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, addictions approaches, family systems therapy, and a variety of eclectic approaches that can be tailored to fit the needs of each individual client. I truly believe in the therapeutic process and relationship.

During sessions, you can expect much support and reinforcement (and some gentle challenging) in a safe and collaborative environment. While we may wish it, therapists do not hold the answers for others. We function more like trail guides so that when you are standing in the dark or unknown, we can illuminate the path that has been there all along. And just as that guide merely shows the path, a therapist cannot do the work for you. This is a team event until you are able to take all the skills and tools you've learned and apply them. My goal is to work myself out of a job for every single client I meet.

I believe in the value of work/life balance and will practice what I preach. But I will also promise the gift of 100% of my time and attention when we are together for live video/phone sessions. And we can follow up with chat or email between sessions to ensure you get the best possible experience. I look forward to our journey together.

Elizabeth is an amazing therapist! She has given me so many tools and helped me realize strengths and support I didn't know I had!

Elizabeth is so easy to talk to, kind, understanding and helpful. She’s got a wonderful set of skills to help with any challenge. I’ve grown so much from her help!

Written on Dec 19, 2023 after therapy with Elizabeth for 1 year and 8 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, family conflicts, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, self esteem, anger management, and coping with life changes

Beth has been the closest I've ever gotten to feeling understood by a total stranger. She's very good at reminding me that "maybe" is always an option, and how powerful that can be when you're fighting your demons. I didn't know what I needed when I came to BetterHelp, but with her help, even if she ever retires or I have to stop the service, for once I really have a direction in my own mental health. And that is amazing.

She’s amazing at what she does and offers support in a kind compassionate way. She is able to challenge my negative thinking patterns in a way that doesn’t feel harsh or judgmental. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is struggling to see past their own negative thoughts.

I have come to truly trust and respect Beth as a friend, a confidant, and incredibly knowledgeable person! She has opened up emotions in me I didn't know I was missing. I can't begin to explain how much her time and compassion has meant to my healing. Blessings to her!

Beth is an excellent therapist, I have been seeing her for over a year now and she has really helped me develop better thought processes and healthier patterns of behavior. She explains mental processes around trauma in a way that is comprehensive and easy to look back on to navigate future situations. She makes me feel validated and heard.
