Liz Markey

Liz Markey, a dedicated counselor with a PsyD and LMHC, emphasizes the significance of emotional honesty as a cornerstone of effective therapy. She understands the paradox that clients may face when they lack the words to express their experiences. With her support, individuals can embark on a journey of careful listening and exploration of their inner worlds and interpersonal dynamics. Liz employs a relational approach, utilizing the therapeutic relationship as a powerful tool for deeper understanding. This fosters an environment where clients are empowered to make life-affirming choices and enhance their connections with themselves and others. Liz has a particular affinity for working with clients who struggle with relationship issues or have faced relational trauma, abuse, or neglect. These challenges often manifest as anxiety, physical symptoms, feelings of sadness, and self-esteem difficulties. Her insights on the influence of technology, social media, and contemporary culture on her clients' lives are grounded in her extensive knowledge. Trained as a contemporary psychoanalyst, she pays keen attention to both the spoken and unspoken elements of therapy, empathizing with those who may find it difficult to articulate their feelings. Additionally, Liz is equipped with training in Somatic Transformation — a mind/body therapeutic approach that integrates early attachments, neurobiology, and the significance of the body in the therapeutic process.
