Elizabeth DeFanti, LCPC, LPC, NCC

A warm welcome, I'm Elizabeth. It takes courage to seek mental health counseling, and I admire you for taking this step in support of your own self-care and wellness. I specialize in resilience counseling to foster well-being and flourishing in a way that aligns with what matters most to you. Together, we can balance tending to concerns, stressors, and symptoms with your inherent resources, enhancing what’s “strong” so you can fully engage with your life, experience joy, and move through challenges with resourcefulness and ingenuity.

In my experience, mental health counseling can provide fertile ground for cultivation - perhaps it's less of something such as stress, anxiety, feeling down, or relationship issues, or more of something such as centeredness, calm, self-trust, meaning and purpose, a life you love... it could be all the above. The possibilities are yours and endless.

I draw on principles and techniques from Positive Psychology which is strength-affirming, focusing on resiliency, living well, and meaningful fulfillment. I also creatively integrate various other therapies in my work. Our time together will be collaborative, where you are the trusted expert in your life, and I am a guide to assist in achieving your goals.
