Elizabeth Black (LPC)

Even though I completed my formal education with my Masters in Counseling from Spring Arbor University in 2015, I have been passionate about people, stories, and truth, for as long as I can remember. I feel blessed to be in a profession where I can engage with all three! I believe that therapy is an opportunity to search for truth about yourself, others, and the world. Therapy can be an intimidating endeavor, but my aim is to create an authentic connection with each of my clients, in order to make the vulnerability it requires easier. I have experience working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, grief and loss, difficult relationships, communication skills, and boundary setting. I am especially passionate about working with young adults as they cope with the many stressors they encounter, though I have experience working with a variety of clients. My personal style is a laid back and highly relational approach. I want to create a genuine relationship in which personal discovery and growth is possible! I also tend to be someone who challenges thought processes, gives feedback, and points to helpful resources. Pursuing therapy is wise and brave. I would consider it an absolute honor to listen to your story, and support you through your current struggles. There is no issue too insignificant to work on or to talk about; no person is meant to walk through life alone.
