Getting to know Elizabeth Waszkiewicz

Hi there, I'm Elizabeth! Hello, my name is Liz Waszkiewicz. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Connecticut and over 15 years of experience working with children, teenagers, families, and adults. I offer a holistic and practical approach to therapy, helping clients gain insight into themselves, their relationships, and improve their lives in the ways they envision. My approach I utilize a person-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused approach. I draw from modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and trauma work to meet client needs. My focus Children and adults with ADHD, neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, trauma history, learning disabilities; parents of children with special needs; those struggling with relationship issues, communication, conflict resolution, life transitions, or mood changes. My communication style I have a warm, kind, and direct style. I will call a client out on some things—I tell clients what they may need to hear in a gentle manner. My journey to mental healthcare I was the "mom" of my adolescent friend group—always a good listener who gave good advice. A passion for social justice brought me to social work. I spent 10 years working in the public school system. Recently, I feel called back to healing. There is a saying: leave a place better than you found it. That is what I hope to do as a therapist. My goals for you Clients set their own goals. I take a collaborative approach, adding language to make goals measurable or time-sensitive. I support clients in the concerns they want to address. My first session with you We will take time to get to know one another; I will briefly review intake paperwork or ask what brings you.
