Elizabeth Vinson, CEO, MA, LPC, LPCS

" I am proud to be surrounded by professionals that take helping seriously. Empathy is not just a word, but a modality. Assisting people towards a happier, more consistent and confident person is the impact of our mission. "

“From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow”; is one of my favorite quotes that shows that through hardships and obstacles we can always find ways to water our own growth and healing. I take this approach as the client as the expert finding your strength in places you didn’t know existed. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and self esteem issues. I take a non judgemental approach to provide a safe environment for you to be your authentic self. It is also an honor to be able to focus on growing and excelling our future clinicians to provide the best quality care and services to our clients and their communities.  

"I hold a strong belief that each client I work with is the expert on their own lives. I love helping my clients become aware of their own ability to work through difficult experiences. I feel joy when a client trusts me with their greatest pain and I can provide a respite, if only for a brief while. I want my clients to know how to dance in the rain, rather than feel the gloom and miss the beauty that the rain produces."

"As a licensed professional counselor, I understand the importance of creating a welcoming, safe, and non-judgmental environment for my clients. I enjoy working alongside children, adolescents, and young adults, helping identify personal strengths that serve as a foundation for building skills and resolving problems. My goal is to encourage my clients to explore and deepen their understanding on the issues most affecting their lives, developing the tools to overcome many obstacles or situations. I believe all individuals deserve to live life to its fullest potential!"

"As a therapist different counseling approaches are beneficial. My personal approach utilizes empowering, motivational, person-centered, down-to-earth and non-judgmental. I have worked in various settings including non-profit, residential group home, substance abuse treatment centers, and methadone clinics." 

"My focus is client-centered and I believe that the client will lead us to their desired location if we just listen. While my specialty is dealing with clients that have had issues with drugs and alcohol in the past, my focus is more often on the client’s root causes and conditions that led them to using these coping mechanisms."

"Over the years, I have gained experience working with all ages. I have served at a domestic violence shelter, child advocacy center, in the school system, foster care, and in home family counseling. My passion is helping clients to gain greater awareness and acceptance of themselves, find ways to take care of themselves, learn to communicate in healthy ways, and overcome their past and current struggles."

"I believe in embracing people responsibly with respect, trust, and honesty. Often, people are discouraged from seeking help for themselves, due to varying emotional position(s) of which they find themselves. I believe people should tell their story, and with assistance processing their narrative to become the version they've forgotten was possible."

 "Everything you need to make life what you want it to be is already in you. I always start with a person-centered approach, but once I know you and your unique needs, I can help you improve your life. I am DBT-informed and can help you discover why self-love and interpersonal relationships have always been struggles for you. I am experienced in LGBTQ+ issues, as well as working with children and grief. As a person who has struggled with depression and anxiety, I can provide empathy, understanding, and coping skills to help free yourself from their grasps on your life. Knowing you need help in making life work for YOU is the first step to becoming the BEST you." 

"I would be honored to offer peace, calm, understanding, safety, and a caring passion for your mental health and recovery journey. I want people to know that I offer a nonjudgmental approach and a true passion for seeing the potential and inner strength of each and every person I encounter in my career. I can offer peace, understanding, and a non judgemental free space to open up about all of their past and present issues. I offer ways to build self- worth, address self defeating thoughts, worries, and process them with compassion and empathy."

 I know life can be tough, and things can happen unexpected leaving you with a sense of being alone in the world feeling like there's no one listening. I’m here to help challenge those feelings. My passion is to support you during your journey toward clarity, while building strength and making meaningful, responsible adjustments toward a healthier life. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal growth, help is available.  Let’s work together to help live the life you deserve, because “life is what you make it, so why not make it beautiful!” 

"I offer a judgment-free and safe space for individuals and families to work through bumps in the road of life using empathy and understanding and various approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy. Making the appointment is a difficult first step, but once you take that step, you will not be alone in your journey, as I will be beside you to help guide you along the way. I enjoy working with individuals and families as a team where you drive and I help you navigate. I look forward to helping you along your journey."

"As a graduate level student, I equip my clients with current and relevant strategies to manage their daily stressors and long-term challenges in a secure, supportive environment. I have a broad interest and understanding of various therapeutic modalities, with particular confidence in using Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). Whether you’re a child, adult, teenager, veteran, older adult, couple, or family, I want to assure you that you’re not alone in navigating life’s journey. Life inevitably has its ups and downs, but remember, you don’t have to face them alone."

 "I believe in meeting a client where they are and working together to create the kind of change they would like to see. I gravitate towards an integrated and eclectic approach to find the best fit for my clients needs and adapt as they need. I do not feel counseling is a ‘one size fits all’ approach and should be focused on each unique individual. My goal is to work collaboratively with my clients in a non-judgmental, safe environment. Recovery begins with a single step in the right direction. Let’s take that step together and get started on a life worth living!"
