A note from Mary Elizabeth

The world can be a challenging place and sometimes we just need a non-biased ear to listen and aid in navigating the journey. I believe my role as a therapist is to walk along side you in your struggles. I have almost a decade of experience working with individuals from all walks of life who are utilizing maladaptive coping skills as a way to make it through. I am here to help carry the hope for a life where those are no longer needed.
