Are you questioning the role of alcohol/drugs in your life or the life of a loved one? Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or just unsettled and wondering if alcohol, substances, or addictive behaviors are contributing? Perhaps you're in early recovery and need support from someone who understands? Often we address our mental health while avoiding discussing alcohol, drugs. or other addictive behaviors. Or, we try to address addictive behaviors without really dealing with underlying issues which led to the addictive behaviors in the first place. The truth is we need to address both simultaneously in order to make real progress.

The demands on parents’ time in a post-covid world can feel overwhelmingly challenging and isolating. How do families stay in touch with the needs of the kids, grown-ups, and the community? How do we get it all done? I strongly believe everyone’s capacity expands and thrives when they have space to identify their needs. I help parents discover their own skills to create lasting patterns that are both regulating and satisfying.

As a Certified Nature-Informed therapist, I integrate nature-based therapeutic methods into my work with clients. This evidence-based approach integrates the restorative power of the natural environment with other established treatments. Once we’ve developed rapport in the office, I offer outdoor sessions held walking and/or sitting at parks and on trails in Takoma Park and Rock Creek Park. Pushing beyond traditional confines of a physical counseling office or telehealth, together we can utilize space and time in nature to boost emotional regulation and best help work through anxieties, challenging times, and life transitions.

As a therapist, I hope to broaden the notion of how therapy can look and feel. In session, I seek to provide a safe, warm, nonjudgmental space where you can come and be seen and valued for who you really are regardless of what has happened to you in your life. My style adapts to your needs in the moment and varies from deeply focused and engaged to gently supportive to ridiculous and playful. Just as in life, I feel that therapy can be enhanced by a certain amount of levity, so I tend to incorporate art, movement, play, humor and profanity to facilitate communication of the full range of emotions.

Life transitions and stressors, anxiety, depression, and trauma can often get in the way of feeling like yourself and doing what is best for you.

With my confidential, professional, and supportive care, we can understand and treat your mood-related symptoms.

Maybe you can’t shake the feeling that your best is never good enough? Do the little things feel overwhelming? Is it hard for you to stick up for yourself and you’re left swallowing your anger or disappointment? My name is Liz Caritj and I work with people in high stress situations, particularly people working in the field of law or in rigorous academic programs, who feel like they’re falling apart trying to hold everything together perfectly.

As a Queer therapist and spiritual companion, I like to do things a little differently. At this time in my career, I’m mostly working with beloved humans who are bravely journeying through deconstructing their religion of origin and are wanting to explore a spirituality beyond religion. I’m doing this because it was part of my story and was a life-altering transformation I wrestled on my own. The good news for me was coming out the other side as my truest self, and with a new expansive spirituality that feeds my seeker-soul and fills me with awe and wonder (without the rules and guilt/shame). You belong here. IFS-informed.

My work begins with taking the time to understand each, unique individual. This collaborative, compassionate yet thought provoking process is called "the talking cure," and it can be life changing. I am a curious listener, and through our weekly conversations you will learn to reflect on what you are experiencing differently - this is why psychotherapy works. I am always sure to provide a safe and respectful environment in order to change maladaptive patterns of thinking, behaving or feeling that stem from past experiences and underlie presenting symptoms, while working on practical solutions to immediate problems.
