More About Lizzie Slater
Clinical Interests:
I am interested in working with couples and children over the age of 8 at this time. As a former first grade teacher and current special education teacher, I am patient, curious, and like to insert humor into my therapy sessions! I am open to working with anyone who is ready to make a change in their life. I have worked with clients without a formal diagnosis, as well as those with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, PTSD, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am currently completing the Gottman Method Couples Therapy Training Level 1, as I am seeking to gain expertise in working with couples struggling with infidelity and communication challenges.

Hobbies:
When I am not working, I love to hang out with my friends and family, and my 10-year old cat! I love to travel internationally, and I book trips spontaneously and as often as I can. I am passionate about my yoga practice and the ways it has helped to transform my personal life. I have been an elementary school teacher for the past 13 years, and I love learning and being silly in my daily life. I am a joyful and bubbly person, and I can’t wait to share more of that in my therapy practice.
