Meet the Trainer
About the Trainer… Elizabeth is originally from Indiana, where she graduated from Huntington University in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. She began her career working with teens in a residential facility, and later as a mentor and leader for youth in the community. She migrated to Kansas City where she completed her Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Friends University in Lenexa, KS in 2005. She furthered her education again in 2009 by completing KC Play Talk, an extensive training program in play therapy and also pursued training to become a AAMFT Approved Supervisor and a Consultant/Trainer in EMDR.
She is now a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor (RPT-S) and treats children ages 2 and up. She is also an EMDRIA Certified Clinician and an Approved Consultant/Trainer in EMDR, which she does with both adults and children. Other advanced treatment approaches include: Trauma Focused CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Theraplay, and her personal favorite, Dyadic Developmental Therapy (Attachment Focused Family Therapy) and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy.
While she began her career working with troubled teens in residential, church, and community agencies, she has worked for over 18 years as a therapist, focusing on children and families healing from severe trauma. She also works with adults, couples, and really enjoys teenagers. Her passion is helping families understand trauma and the unique ways it needs treated in relationships. In 2011 she launched a private practice in Leawood, KS where she continues to work with families in need.
Why so many certifications and letters behind her name?! While Elizabeth is a passionate life-long learner, she also values encouraging and supporting colleagues and other professionals in our field. In order to lead others and provide consultation and/or supervision these credentials are necessary to open the career doors her consultants desire.
Elizabeth provides Consultation for EMDR, supporting therapists who desire to use this approach with their own clients. She also provides supervision for play therapy, and is a AAMFT Approved Supervisor, assisting new therapists with post-graduate supervision in Kansas and Missouri.
