Elizabeth Macias

LCSW, EMDR Trained Therapist

Hola and welcome. I'm Elizabeth, a bilingual therapist passionate about creating space for healing and growth.

 

To me, therapy is a place of hope. 

 

I became a therapist because I find deep meaning in hearing people’s stories, often the ones they’ve never shared with anyone else. I believe that being truly heard can be the beginning of healing. As a bilingual therapist, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from many different backgrounds and walks of life.

 

Connection is at the heart of my work.  I believe the therapeutic relationship itself can be one of the most healing parts of therapy. My style is warm, collaborative, and client-centered, grounded in empathy, humor, and genuine care. 

 

As an EMDR-trained clinician, I’m passionate about helping clients move through life’s challenges, rediscover their strengths, and cultivate a deeper sense of peace and purpose.

 

Outside of being a therapist, I’m a proud dog mom who loves to travel and find adventure wherever I go. I enjoy dancing and singing my heart out at karaoke. A personal goal of mine is to qualify for the Chicago Marathon, even though my first half marathon nearly took me out. Like therapy, running has taught me that progress isn’t about speed, but about showing up, staying consistent, and growing through each step.
