Elizabeth Bruen profile picture

I’m Betty, a dedicated therapist passionate about creating a supportive and understanding space for your personal growth. My approach is deeply rooted in warmth, empathy, and compassion, reflecting my belief in the inherent strength and resilience within each individual.

I view each person through a holistic lens, recognizing that you are more than just a collection of symptoms or challenges. Instead, I see you as part of a larger 'ecosystem,' where various aspects of your life—relationships, work, health, and more—interact to shape your overall well-being. By considering these interconnected elements, my goal is to help you navigate and understand the complexities of your experiences in a meaningful way.

My work is grounded in a strengths-based approach, focusing on identifying and amplifying your existing strengths and resources. Together, we’ll explore your unique abilities and potential, working towards your goals in a manner that honors your individuality and values.

I’m here to listen, support, and collaborate with you as we embark on this journey toward growth and healing. Whether you’re seeking guidance through a challenging time or aiming to enhance your overall well-being, I’m honored to be part of your path forward.

Let’s work together to create positive change and achieve the fulfilling life you deserve.
