Elizabeth Lee, LMFT

Elizabeth Lee holds an MA in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University (1988) and is an LMFT - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - with 22 years of clinical experience. She specializes in helping people build healthier relationships with themselves and with others, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and family problems, parenting challenges, grief and loss, LGBT issues, intimacy-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, stress, low self-esteem, anger, and career transitions.

Her therapeutic style is compassionate, empathetic, and nonjudgmental, offering validation and practical support tailored to each person's needs. She is skilled at identifying recurring patterns in a person's life and bringing those patterns into awareness so they can be examined and transformed. In some cases those patterns are areas to change; in others they reveal hidden strengths and resources that can be used for growth and empowerment.

Elizabeth often employs paradoxical techniques to help clients reframe painful experiences and convert perceived weaknesses into sources of resilience. She teaches communication skills to improve relationships across family, romantic, and work contexts, combining exploration of past relationships with focused attention on present-day interactions to make practical, lasting change. Her approach is eclectic and whole-person in orientation, addressing mind, body, and spirit as relevant to each client's goals.

Elizabeth has worked with survivors of sexual assault, domestic abuse, and other traumas, and has experience with suicidality, psychosis, personality disorders, interfaith spiritual concerns, and a wide range of life stressors. She adapts methods to fit individual needs rather than relying on a single model. She is not currently accepting new clients.
