Getting to know Elizabeth O'Callahan

Like the brightest star in the east announcing the dawn, therapy helps you develop the tools to guide your path, even when all other lights go out. As a therapist, my goal is to work with you to build those tools together. At all times, I practice person-centered and trauma-informed care, emphasizing safety and empowerment, and that clients are the experts of their own care. I will walk alongside you to help you find tools that build resilience in an increasingly challenging world I value providing treatment that is shown to be effective. CBT is evidence-based, structured and goal oriented. It focuses on identifying how our thoughts shape our feelings and behavior, and how we can replace distressing thoughts with those that are useful In an ever-uncertain world, I incorporate themes of existentialism into treatment, emphasizing choice, freedom, and the importance of living in the here-and-now. Existentialism acknowledges the reality of life's painful truths without attempting to soften or minimize them, but without abandoning hope of building a better tomorrow. Radical hope is the idea that a better future is possible, even if current circumstances prevent us from fully seeing the path forward. John Green said that “hope is the correct response to the strange, often terrifying miracle of consciousness. Hope is not easy or cheap. It is true.” Having radical hope does not mean things will get better by themselves, or that the path forward will be without hardship, but it asserts that humans are resilient, clever and often underestimate their own ability to persevere.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I specialize in supporting folks living with anxiety, ADHD/Autism/AuDHD, disability or chronic illness/pain thrive in a world that's not built for them, both from as "subject matter expert" and more importantly, as a person with lived experience in these areas. I also specialize in helping people facing end of life issues or loved ones who are needing support

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I use a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to help clients navigate neurodivergence, chronic pain/illness, grief, trauma and end of life. I'll spend the first 1-2 sessions getting to know details of your needs, goals, and what tools work best for you. We'll develop an initial treatment plan together with you during those first few sessions that we can later revisit and tweak at any time.
