About Elsbeth Riemer

Elsbeth Riemer is a Massachusetts-based therapist who brings a grounded, system-minded approach to clinical work. She holds LMHC and LMFT credentials, which stand for Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and she has built two decades of experience supporting people through anxiety, trauma, family challenges, and related concerns.

Her work begins with an orientation toward radical acceptance paired with family systems understanding, attending to how individuals fit within the relationships and environments that shape their lives. She is highly trained in anxiety and trauma treatment, family therapy, and experiential resilience techniques aimed at reducing fear and phobic responses. Riemer emphasizes the whole person - mind and body - and often frames clinical material with a science-informed view of how biology and mental life interact.

Humor is a deliberate part of her practice, used to foster connection and ease as clients explore difficult material. Across sessions she weaves practical strategies and experiential practice to build resilience, improve relationships, and help clients restore a sense of balance in daily life.
