Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) Liz Snider

Hi I’m Elizabeth, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) at Upstream Counselling. You can call me Liza.

I have been fortunate to have spent the last 10 years working in international travel, both guiding and hosting others. My appreciation of our shared human diversity and beauty, stems from the many different cultures I have been fortunate to work, with in different parts of the world. I have gained experience working with single mothers in Kibera Kenya, while my own experience as a mother and step mother, has been valuable as I learned to nurture healthy relationships within our blended family. I work with an integrated approach that considers post modern styles such as narrative therapy and solution focused brief therapy. My belief is that individuals construct meaning in their lives from the dialogue they have with others and the language used in their cultures and societies.

Navigating tough decisions or unexpected changes can leave us feeling lost and unsure. We each hold a unique worldview and in therapy, we can explore how this unique lens affects how you view yourself, and others. When we understand ourselves better, we are better equipped to address unhelpful thinking patterns and/or behaviours that may be negatively impacting our lives.

Whether you are struggling with depression or anxiety, life transitions, or perhaps you are struggling to find your place in an ever-changing uncertain world, therapy can help you find a way to move forward. My belief is that we have the capacity to change our thinking, behaviour, and actions in a way that leads us to a greater sense of holistic wellbeing.

If you are seeking greater understanding of your identity, values, and beliefs, and hoping to make deeper connections with others, please reach out today, and together we can find the right path for you.
