Elizabeth Dikibo, LPC Associate
under the supervision of Tia Jennings, LPC-S
You’re exhausted and worn-out from the daily tasks of life and the emotions that feel all too heavy right now. You find yourself losing track of time, endlessly scrolling through the internet just to take your mind off of things. You crave connection with those around you, but the heaviness of your emotions make you feel like you’re a burden to those closest to you. You are usually the one to put others first and care for those around you, but you worry if people really see you and know you for you.
You crave authentic connection and a space to be heard, seen, and accepted for who you truly are, and not what others expect you to be. You want to belong, to vulnerably share life with friends and family, to love and be loved without fear.
You’ve tried figuring out things on your own and even dab in the latest self-help trend, but you have found that it’s not working as you had imagined. You are used to being self-sufficient and sorting out things on your own, but you have come to realize that you need help.
It takes courage to ask for help, we are not meant to do life alone but are made for connection. You see this, you know this, you seek this.
Hi! I’m Elizabeth, LPC-Associate supervised by Tia Jennings, I hope to partner with you in reclaiming your story, so you can experience more wholeness and peace in your life.
Most people when they think of therapists, think they have it all together, but I want you to know that I am a human first. Growing up in an immigrant household, I was faced with the challenges of balancing my family’s expectations with the cultures I was living within. There was this invisible weight that I carried coupled with being an empath caused me to struggle with anxiety and depression at a young age. At the time I was disconnected from myself and was not yet aware of how my mental state was affecting me. As I entered young adulthood, I started going to therapy and started
experiencing wholeness and peace. Being on the other side now, I want others to be able to experience the wholeness and peace that therapy offered me.
I understand that hesitancy can accompany the idea of therapy, so I prioritize creating a safe and trusting space that allows you to come out of hiding and show up as yourself, as you feel seen and heard to process through your thoughts and emotions. Sessions with me are filled with compassion, warmth, non-judgment, and authenticity.
During our time together we will explore your story and the deeper meanings and root causes of your pain, difficult thoughts, and behavior patterns. Through a lens of curiosity, you will gain greater insight and new tools to bring about the change that you have been desiring. I know the thought of change can feel overwhelming, but you’ll come out on the other side feeling empowered that you are enough and having strength to live life more authentically.
Together, we will get you to a place where you are able to show up as yourself in relationships, meaningfully connect with those around you, to enjoy the life that you are currently living.
I’m passionate about working with clients that express signs of worry and anxiety, negative self-talk/image, poor self-esteem and confidence, faith concerns, childhood wounds, life transitions, burnout/fatigue, relational issues, trauma, grief/loss, loneliness, and cultural and ethnic issues.
I have a passion with working with young adults and women through shame and self-worth, identity, attachment, childhood experiences, and faith-based counseling.
