ELIZABETH DROPPERS, MSMFT, LMFT

As a therapist, my primary aim is to bear compassionate, curious witness to your healing journey. It is such a privilege to hold space for you. In session, we’ll work collaboratively toward your goals, befriend the Parts of your internal system, and move toward the transformational work of unburdening.

I’m committed to therapeutic work that is client-centered, non-pathologizing, and culturally sensitive. I’m an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and am committed to anti-racism. I’m neurodivergence affirming. I welcome clients of all faith backgrounds and walks of life.
