About

Seeking support is a courageous step, and you’re not alone on this path

Hi there, my name is Elizabeth! Here are some fast facts about me and Blooming Lotus Wellness: * I graduated from University of Massachusetts Dartmouth with Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Women and Gender Studies * I then graduated from Bridgewater State University with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling. * I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Massachusetts * I have been in the mental health field for nearly ten years, and have been doing mental health counseling for over three years * I have worked with clients over nearly the entire lifespan, from ages 4-84 * I am proudly LGBTQIA+ safe and competent * I have had experience across the field of mental health, including; community mental health clinics, inpatient hospitals, intensive partial hospitalization clinics, prisons, and in home therapy * I currently am specializing in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) * My therapeutic approach is person centered, feminist, intersectional, sex positive, narrative, practiced with cultural humility, grounded in empathy, based in neurocounseling and biopsychosocial approach, supported by evidence based practices (Curious what each of these mean? Feel free to ask!) * Outside of work I love spending time with my cat, dog, and partner, crafting, playing video games, and reading! What is EMDR Therapy? Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR therapy was developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s and has since become a widely accepted approach to addressing emotional disturbances caused by traumatic experiences. The core principle of EMDR involves utilizing bilateral stimulation, often through rapid eye movements, to help process and desensitize distressing memories and emotions. How Does EMDR Work? During an EMDR session, a trained therapist guides the individual through a structured process that targets traumatic memories. The therapist helps the person reprocess these memories while encouraging the brain to make new connections and associations. This can lead to a reduction in the emotional charge associated with the memories, allowing the individual to find relief from symptoms such as anxiety, nightmares, and flashbacks.
