As an extrovert, my behaviors and style of communication affirm my belief in establishing rapport and creating trust with clients. I consider helping others in the area of mental health my passion and purpose.

Elizabeth Scott Savill, LPC: Prior to obtaining my LPC, I graduated with a BS in Psychology from Virginia Tech in 2003 and an MS in Counseling from Longwood University in 2007. Life includes trials and tribulations that can leave you feeling unraveled. I am here to advocate for and guide you throughout your therapeutic journey to restore balance, discover or reconnect with your authentic self, improve your relationships, and live your best life. I am an empathetic but goal-oriented therapist that values your individuality and unique circumstances. Utilizing a variety of individually matched and eclectic therapeutic approaches helps me provide you with the most effective treatment techniques tailored to your specific needs and desired outcomes, including frequently implemented: Eclectic, CBT, mindfulness-based, expressive arts, ACT, attachment-based, strength-based, positive psychology, person-centered, DBT, play, grief, Gottman, motivational interviewing, interpersonal, multicultural, somatic, psychodynamic, REBT, positive psychology, reality, and solution-focused therapies. I typically work with adults, teens, and children (age 8+), specializing in anxiety, depression, social, academic, employment, relationship, grief, identity, self-esteem, phase of life, family, trauma, behavior-related, anger management, attention-deficit, comorbid, and mood concerns. I provide a relaxed, safe, confidential, and judgment-free telehealth space to facilitate growth from the comfort of your own home or at your convenience.

Accepting new clients remotely and in person. I've practiced psychotherapy for over 40 years, and during most of that time also taught psychiatric residents at Johns Hopkins Medical School. My areas of specialization are bipolar type 2 and borderline personality condition. I've also worked with many entrepreneurs since the publication of my book, The Hypomanic Edge: The Link Between (a Little) Craziness and (a Lot of) Success in America. What's different about me is that after receiving traditional training, I've integrated it with meditation. Mindfulness, especially when combined with therapy, provides calm, objective self-awareness that leads to self-control, which may lessen the need for medication. More meditation can mean less medication. More recently, I'm working with research subjects who have undergone psilocybin therapy for a book, "The Cosmic Consciousness Cure." Affecting the same brain areas as meditation, psilocybin therapy produces a quantum leap in mindfulness. I'd be happy to speak with anyone seeking legal psilocybin treatment. I can't provide it, but it is now legally available in Oregon, and I would be happy to work with clients on integrating that experience.

Do you get extra nervous around other people—especially new people or people that you do not know very well? Do you find yourself overthinking everything you say because you are worried about saying the "wrong thing"? Or after a conversation, you replay the entire conversation in your mind and get stuck on worrying that you embarrassed yourself? Perhaps there is a social activity that you would like to do, but you avoid it due to how anxious it makes you feel? Everyone can have experiences like these sometimes, but if you find that anxiety about interacting with other people is interfering with your life, then social anxiety may be the cause. If so, then I can help: I specialize in working with people who are struggling with social anxiety. First, we'll do a thorough assessment just to make sure that social anxiety is the best explanation for what you are experiencing. If it is, you will learn to identify and challenge the thoughts and beliefs that are feeding into your anxiety, reduce the power of your thoughts and feelings, gradually confront the very situations that are making you feel so anxious, and move toward your values. By doing this, you can start to feel better. While that does not always mean that your anxiety will completely go away, it means that the anxiety will likely be much more manageable—you will be able to do more of what is important to you and actually enjoy it. To help determine whether working together would be a good fit, the next step is to schedule a free, 15-minute phone consultation—no pressure, just a conversation. You can schedule online by going to my website, send me a message (best way to reach me), or give me a call. I will get back to you very quickly, usually within 24 hours!

Hi there. Glad you stopped by! I really love the work that I do, and I’m very lucky to get to meet people in moments of vulnerability. Over the years, I’ve worked with people going through depression, anxiety, trauma, as well as grief and loss. My particular niche is working alongside men individually, who often carry a significant internal burden that they may rarely talk about, or even have words for. Therapy can provide a space to put some of that weight down, make sense of it, and learn how to express what is really going on beneath the surface. I also very much enjoy working with couples. Having myself been married since 2015, my own relationship has taught me a great deal about communication, vulnerability, conflict, and the work it takes to build a lasting relationship. Those experiences led me to embrace the Gottman Method, a therapeutic orientation that focuses heavily on intentionality.

I focus my work with individuals and couples to improve connection and secure functioning within relationships. I also work individuals dealing with affair recovery and betrayal trauma. Additionally, a large part of my practice focuses on healing from past traumas. During big life events we all need support, compassion, understanding, and sometimes guidance to return to feeling whole, connected, and allow joy back into our lives. Learning to care for yourself and using evidence based tools to improve your life will be our focus. My hope is to help you heal so you manage life's stressors and feel confident to face the world.

You may be used to showing up for everyone else while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what you need. I offer a space where you can speak openly, feel heard, and begin making sense of what you are experiencing. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in supporting women of color as they work through burnout, family expectations, identity, and the pressure to remain strong. Together, we will explore how your experiences, thoughts, and relationships influence your daily life. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and emotional regulation skills, tailoring our work to your goals and needs. We may focus on strengthening boundaries, improving communication, understanding emotional patterns, or finding manageable ways to cope. I value your perspective and welcome honest feedback about what is helping and what needs to change. You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin with what feels most important to you and move at a pace that supports both trust and growth.

Typically I work with clients who have unresolved trauma and is still stuck in problematic behavioral patterns. They have often done some "talk therapy" in the past but didn’t really find it that helpful. I use more experiential methods to help you make lasting changes that improve your quality of life, not just provide stabilization. I’ve found that talk therapy can be one of the slowest ways to do therapy, and that if you ignore sensory input from the body, then you’re only doing therapy from the neck up. Whether you’re facing new challenges or struggling with ongoing circumstances, you may be feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, helpless, or anxious. You may also have slipped back into unhealthy patterns of behavior that you worked hard to change. I take a collaborative approach to therapy, and I’ll tell you up front that I don’t have a crystal ball or magic wand! I believe that we each have a unique journey, and while I do have education and training as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Maryland, I haven’t lived your life, and I’m not an expert on YOU.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 4 years of experience supporting individuals through life transitions, anxiety, grief, mood challenges, trauma, and substance use. I specialize in working with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves, their relationships, or their sense of purpose. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking clarity, healing, and a more grounded sense of self. Together, we work to understand patterns that no longer serve them, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and school psychologist with over 25 years of experience working with children, adults, and families in community, outpatient, and school settings. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and trauma, and I also bring extensive experience supporting people with autism, learning disabilities, and intellectual disabilities. I believe in every person’s capacity for growth, and I tailor my approach to each individual’s strengths and needs.

Many of my clients are people who appear successful on the outside but privately struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or a persistent sense that something in life isn't working. Others come to therapy after experiencing trauma, loss, infidelity, major life transitions, or feeling stuck despite their best efforts to move forward. Whatever brings you here, therapy offers the opportunity to navigate and address your distinct challenges. Therapy engages a process of insight, reflection, and an emotional process that leads to profound change and growth. Through careful listening, curiosity, interactive conversation, thoughtful feedback and gentle challenge, I help clients uncover unrecognized and unacknowledged aspects of themselves, break longstanding patterns that are no longer useful, and build more authentic, connected, and fulfilling lives. I work with adults throughout Washington, DC, Maryland, and California, offering a confidential space where you can feel heard, understood, supported, and gently challenged when needed. Together, we explore the patterns, relationships, and emotional experiences that shape your life, helping you develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and more satisfying ways of relating to yourself and others for deep and lasting change. I offer a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation. It's an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, answer your questions, and to begin to determine whether working together feels right.
