"Having experienced both the highs and the setbacks life brings, I’ve learned that resilience begins within. There is strength in being your own strongest supporter, holding yourself accountable, and choosing to move forward — even when circumstances are challenging."

I am a dedicated mental health clinician supporting individuals across a broad spectrum of conditions, including generalized anxiety, panic attacks, depression, trauma and PTSD, mood disorders, ADHD, emotional dysregulation, grief and loss, self-esteem struggles, family conflict, and major life transitions.

"As a woman of color, I understand the unique challenges and the importance of being able to balance work life. "

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I work with individuals who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—often battling anxiety, depression, trauma, or mood instability. My ideal clients are those who have tried therapy, medication, or other routes but still feel like something's missing. They're searching for real, lasting relief and a provider who listens deeply, understands their unique story, and offers compassionate, evidence-based care that goes beyond a prescription pad. My approach is holistic and client-centered—I don't just treat symptoms, I look at the whole person: mind and body. 

Clients can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and more in control of their mental health. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions safely. Together, we'll set realistic goals focused on symptom relief, coping skills, and self-awareness, and you'll never feel pressured.

My primary focus is on client empowerment. This includes helping to identify environmental factors oppressing your growth and healing, how to navigate imperfect systems to meet your needs, and community building—because healing is not individual work. Healing happens with other people, within communities and relationships. Modalities I use include CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. 

I can't wait to find the spark of inspiration that lights you up and helps you feel confident to follow your heart. Even one session might help you begin making amazing changes.

"As a woman in long-term recovery, a parent in a same-sex committed relationship who went through years of infertility and has four adopted children, and an adult with ADHD, I have a wealth of personal and professional experience in treating addiction, ADHD, LGBTQ+ issues, HIV, grief and loss, and many other mental health challenges. "

Liz Kariotis-Rice is a Clinical Social Worker trained with a psychodynamic focus at New York University. She has expanded beyond that lens to a more humanistic, strength-based, and solution-focused one, based upon her experience working with a very diverse range of clients in settings ranging from community health centers to major hospitals to outpatient addiction treatment centers to street outreach and drop-in centers for the homeless. Her passions include working with people who have challenges in any of the following areas: sexuality, gender, ADHD, addiction, HIV, fertility, adoption, and parenting, and my professional experience includes but is not limited to helping people struggling with grief/loss, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

When working with Liz, it is paramount that clients understand therapy is a process that requires work from both the client and the therapist, and the work is not limited to just within the session for the client. She encourages clients to take as much responsibility as they can when caring for their physical, emotional, and spiritual health because while the therapist can certainly provide wisdom, guidance, and redirection, ultimately the strength, courage, and power to heal are within each and every individual client.

Liz's personal approach is to see beyond diagnoses and problems, and her style is transparent and somewhat nontraditional. She hopes through her work with individuals to be able to bring out their strengths behind the struggles, to point out the achievements where they see shortcomings, and to instill hope, no matter how dire the straits and bleak the outlook may look. Her therapeutic superpower is her ability to engage, connect, and build rapport with a wide range of people.

"If you are looking for a therapist who has many years of personal and professional experience with LGBTQ+ issues, addiction recovery, ADHD, grief/loss, infertility, adoption, and parenting, feel free to reach out to me," says Liz. "When I am not spending time with my four young children, four dogs, and two cats, I'm cooking, gardening, cycling, doing carpentry and art projects, listening to music, playing and watching sports, or enjoying the comfort of friends and fellowship."

"As a lesbian-identified woman of color, I understand the unique issue of identity exploration."

Josalin Scott is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Her main area of specialty is helping individuals who are coping with depression, anxiety, ADHD/ADD diagnosis, self-harming, pet loss, family building concerns, and LGBTQ+ matters. Over the years, Josalin has gained experience by working with individuals who are coping with emotional abuse, deportation of family members, death of loved ones, and other painful experiences. She also works with individuals who seek treatment for anger management and stress management.

Josalin implements effective psychotherapy methods such as cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, client-centered, and humanistic approaches, which can be effective in assisting clients to instill self-understanding by encouraging them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: Therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and therapist alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, anxiety, and pain can bring life-altering results. There is no judgment, only compassion and a safe environment to heal.

"Have a particular life obstacle you’re trying to overcome? Are you working to cope with everyday stressors? Couple or family conflicts? Coping with the loss of a loved pet? Need a LGBTQ+ affirming therapist? Seeking help from a licensed therapist is the best way to put things into perspective," says Josalin. "As a licensed psychotherapist, I am committed to the well-being of all humans big and small. I am dedicated to going above and beyond to assist with helping people empower themselves and find the answers they seek. I look forward to the prospect of supporting you in conquering the problems you are presently dealing with!"

As a Resident Counselor with Thriveworks, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety and emotional well-being. My approach to therapy focuses on helping you understand and work through the root causes of your struggles, not just the symptoms. We start by looking at real-life situations where you feel stuck or distressed, and gently explore the feelings you may be avoiding because they’re uncomfortable or anxiety-provoking. Together, we’ll also notice the habits or “defenses” you use to cope, some of which may actually be making things harder.

I’ll support you in understanding and gradually changing these patterns, so you can face difficult feelings in a safe and manageable way. As you become more comfortable experiencing your emotions, many symptoms—like anxiety or feeling stuck—can begin to ease, and you can develop healthier, more effective ways of relating to yourself and others.

I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard and supported. I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you explore new pathways toward healing, balance, and a more fulfilling life.
