"I was a skeptic of therapy when I first started, even though a part of me knew I needed the help. Not only was she incredibly patient and understanding, she helped me work on myself at a pace that felt just right. I don't think anyone's ever made me feel so understood. She's got a gift. Let's just say I went from thinking therapy probably wouldn't work to recommending it to every person I know!"

 "I couldn't have been luckier to work with Liza for my first time trying therapy."

"Liza's so insightful and helped me really understand where my issues come from. She got me to look at things I'd never considered before. Working with Liza changed how I see the world in a lot of ways. Today I feel genuine confidence in who I am, and my relationships are so much healthier."

 "I came to Liza for help with confidence and problems with anxious attachment, and it's amazing how much we unpacked together."

"She asks brilliant and thought-provoking questions that help you get straight to the heart of every issue, and she's also really easy to be with and down-to-earth. She knows when to push you but also when not to. I look forward to our sessions every single week and always leave them feeling more clear-headed, grounded, and calm."

"Liza's a powerhouse of a therapist."

"Anyone who is fortunate enough to be her client will quickly know what I'm talking about. She helps me make sense of everything I'm feeling and thinking, and I walk away each week with so much clarity and optimism."

"I've had a lot of therapists in my life, but Liza is sort of in a league of her own."
