I have been working in college, young adult, and adult mental health for 20 years. I am board-certified in the treatment that works best in most cases, behavioral and cognitive therapy (CBT). Therapy works best if you have a strong relationship with the person treating you. I look forward to the chance to try.

Bolton Landing, NY

I am a New York state licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience providing social, emotional and academic support to students. I currently specialize in working with college students who struggle with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression and life transitions as well as academic, social and relationship issues. I have extensive experience working with student-athletes helping to support their emotional well-being and promote positive athletic performance. I provide a supportive therapeutic environment in which I work together with students to "connect the dots" between experiences, thoughts and behavior. I create a warm, comfortable environment for students that is collaborative, practical and solution-focused and one that focuses on helping students increase self awareness, identify needs and set goals. My therapeutic style is based on cognitive behavioral therapy and integrates a variety of humanistic and strength-based modalities including mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. My goal is to help clients better understand their thoughts, feelings and behaviors to promote positive change in their lives. If you are interested in working with me, please email me at elizabethgreenphd@gmail.com to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation. I accept several insurance plans and am happy to provide a super bill to out-of-network clients.

I realize that the decision to start therapy is not an easy one. Being in therapy is both a challenging and rewarding experience that can help you achieve life goals and help you reduce stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. I consider it a privilege to work as a psychologist and to be a part of my clients’ lives. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked in a college counseling center for 6 years. I thoroughly enjoy meeting with college students and helping them navigate the challenges they are facing. Feel free to contact me by phone or email if you would like to set up a first appointment or learn more about my practice.

Do you think about what kind of person you'd like to be, but feel uncertain, nervous, lost, or overwhelmed about how to make the change? College is an exciting time to explore your identity, learn how to build meaningful relationships, and to find a purposeful career. If you're hoping to feel more confident in who you are, feel more certain about your direction in life and live up to your potential, you've come to the right place. Dr. Grace specializes in asking these "big questions" in life. She marries the wisdom of Buddhist practices with the science of psychology to deepen clients' self-awareness and exploration, and uses a multiculturally sensitive lens to identify how our environments may have shaped our beliefs, motivations, and behaviours. Clients often say that sessions with Dr. Grace feel productive, with a balance between insight and action. Her presence is calming and non-judgmental, encouraging clients to maximize their growth. She is a MSU alumni, having previously worked at CAPS, and offers fully virtual services in both English and Mandarin. Evening hours available.

Are you working through trauma or a difficult life transition? Are you in relationship with a toxic or narcissistic person? Are you facing painful loss? Do you want to use principles of spirituality to strengthen you and answer life's deepest questions? Do you suffer from DID or dissociative disorder? For 30 years, I have guided people toward authentic ways of living and relating. Through many types of treatment, I help people to understand how traumatic life events change us and how to transform thoughts, feelings, and relationships. We focus on real actions you can take to find the power to reverse the effects of pain and trauma. I was educated at Cornell University and the University of Denver's School of Professional Psychology. I interned at the Albert Einstein Medical School and earned a post-doctoral fellowship at the world-renowned Menninger School of Psychiatry. I have highly specialized training in trauma, dissociative disorders and DID, spirituality, and toxic relationships. Many therapists look only at the surface. Instead, I will work deeply with you to see what and who causes you anxiety and depression, grief, sadness, emptiness and fear. We will take a thorough look back to see what and who has made an impact on you, positively and negatively. We will focus on actions to create a way to go forward with success and happiness.

Psychologist
Newton, MA

As a clinical psychologist, I assist clients to address issues that are difficult to confront alone. I encourage self-reflection, help clients gain a clearer understanding of their life experiences and bring awareness to patterns of relating that are interfering with living a satisfying life. My orientation is primarily psychodynamic; it promotes self-exploration and gaining insight, along with productive behavior change. I take an active and engaged role with my clients by asking questions and offering ideas. I approach therapy as a collaborative process with the intention of reducing suffering, increasing self-understanding, and cultivating deeper and more compassionate relationships. I specialize in addressing chronic trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, loss, and relationship difficulties.
