It's okay to not be okay.

Living a life where you are seen, loved, and feel alive is worth fighting for.

Even harder, it’s worth talking through.

Where are you in your path to therapy?

Wherever you are, therapy provides space for change, growth, and healing.

You feel a need to be seen.

It’s okay to not be okay right now. To not want to pretend anymore.

Feeling ignored, unseen, and invisible in your relationships is not okay. When you show up as yourself and people tell you you’re too direct, or too needy, or just all around too much, it’s not okay. And it takes a toll on our energy and our belief in ourselves.

You’ve tried to go it alone.

You’ve deliberated dated against your type. You’ve deliberately NOT been your messed up parents. You don’t want to be living for your vacation, you want to be living now. You are kind, you are smart. You have read the books and watched the TED Talks. And yet you are in a place where you feel less and less and the only time you can relax is when you’re alone enough to just have your feelings.

You think it’s not a big deal.

“I should be able to handle this, it’s just life.”  Your hurt and pain are real and deserve to be talked about.

Therapy is a place to get real and to have a relationship that’s about seeing and hearing who you are, problems and pain included. This isn’t about minimizing what’s happening. It’s about moving through so you can celebrate the opportunities.

Let’s dive right in!

When you walk through my virtual door, we are in this together. You will not be alone during this journey. Therapy is a relationship that helps you not only figure out who you are but also love who you are. We dive deep into your still waters, but underneath the surface we find the colors and lights and life that live at the heart of you. And I will be right there with you, making sure you are safe and heard and ready for when you spring alive and become ready for the best adventure of your life.

My name is Elizabeth and I'm here to listen to all the different parts of you.

I’m a psychotherapist, a traveler, and a writer. I blend my clinical experience with the latest research and the arts to help people understand and, ultimately, live a richer and more full life. I find my greatest delight in challenging those with hidden parts to step into the light and be uncomfortable so we can reach the shore that holds wisdom and joy. Finding ways to make sense of, and to be proud of, our entire story takes courage and determination and hard work. I would be honored to help you with that journey.

Kind Words

I came to Elizabeth with questions about my sexuality and how it fit with my marriage and with society. She helped me understand and connect how I could grow and develop in that, and it ended up spanning productive changes and reflections in all parts of my life, work and personal... she ended up even helping me explore a change at work. Elizabeth is a great person to work with because she's very knowledgeable and curious, but then pushes and counters you when you need it most. Especially a great fit for high-achieving mid-career folks with complex situations, and those around them!

“I highly recommend Elizabeth. She is an extremely dedicated therapist with a wide variety of experience and tools. Her work with veterans and those dealing with trauma is especially impressive. Her level of commitment to growth and healing for her clients is hard to find.”

Elizabeth is a nonjudgmental, compassionate and down-to-earth therapist. I highly recommend her if you are looking to heal trauma or attachment wounds as her style of engaging creates a sense of safety and acceptance that makes healing possible.

“Elizabeth is an excellent clinician. She brings rigor and deep insight into her work with clients. Her style blends a concrete approach with compassion and humor. If you want a no non-sense pragmatic therapist who will offer you skills and tools, Elizabeth is your woman. I trust her implicitly with clients.”

“Elizabeth McGinnis is a very passionate, genuine, well trained therapist . . . I have seen her devotion toward her work and clients. She goes out of her way to bring quality into her work. I highly recommend Elizabeth for anyone who is going through personal or relational issues. She has extraordinary quality to be a good listener and support.”
