Break free from life’s challenges and find your balance.
Therapy for trauma, depression, anxiety & burnout. In-person in San Rafael; virtual anywhere in California.
Life has been throwing curveballs, and lately, they’ve been hitting harder than ever.
The anxious thoughts that won’t quit, the haze of depression, past traumas showing up when you least expect them, or the job that once felt exciting and meaningful now is draining your spirit—it’s a lot to carry.
Imagine letting go of what’s holding you back—the patterns keeping you stuck, the trauma weighing you down.
It looks like living in alignment with your values– in all facets of your life, without being carried away with overthinking or self-doubt.
You’re showing up for you, living with more joy, ease, and purpose.
Through tailored-to-you evidence-based therapy, I integrate various modalities and science-backed techniques to craft a plan personalized for you.
Whether it’s EMDR (eye-movement desensitization & reprocessing), mindfulness techniques, ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), or CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy)– I offer relational, evidence-based therapy, tailored to best meet your unique needs.
With 15+ years of experience, I have supported hundreds of people overcome emotional pain and re-connect with what really matters.

"As an emergency room physician, I'm no stranger to stress. I've spent years managing in high-stress, life-or-death situations. However, I didn't realize how much my own mental health had suffered along the way. I was honestly hesitant to engage in therapy, but working with Lizzie was a major turning point for me in regards to helping me move through my own symptoms. She understood my unique concerns as a physician and supported me in new skills, as well as helped me make critical changes in my personal and professional life.”

“Not only has Dr. Horevitz delivered tremendous direct care, she has taught and guided innumerable other healthcare providers in developing their own skills and establishing their own high standards. In short, as a provider and leader, she understands what tools are available and needed to provide the best possible care. She is a respected colleague, an empathic listener, and is deeply committed to individuals under her care and her community.”
- Dr. Jeffery DeVido, MD
“Dr. Horevitz is one of the most dedicated, skillful, compassionate therapists I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I’d send a family member to her in a heartbeat.”
