Elizabeth Mance, LLPC

CLINICAL THERAPIST

Hi! I’m Beth. I work with teens and adults navigating trauma, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, addictions, burnout, and significant life transitions. I also support individuals who want to better understand themselves, change patterns that are no longer serving them, and improve their overall wellness.

My approach to therapy is holistic, trauma-informed, humanistic, and relational. I draw from CBT, DBT skills, EMDR-informed therapy, mindfulness, somatic practices, and psychoeducation based on each client’s individual needs. I believe healing is most effective when we look at the whole person and recognize that our thoughts, emotions, relationships, physical experiences, and environments are deeply connected. Together, we may explore patterns, develop more sustainable ways of coping, strengthen emotional regulation, and build a greater sense of safety and connection within yourself.

My understanding of trauma is grounded in years of direct experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families in foster care and independent living services. Through this work, I developed a deep understanding of the effects of abuse, neglect, disrupted attachment, loss, family instability, and chronic stress. This foundation continues to inform my clinical work and helps me recognize how trauma can shape emotional regulation, relationships, identity, self-worth, and a person’s ability to feel safe and connected.

I also bring a strong wellness-oriented perspective to my work. As a lifelong athlete and certified personal trainer and coach, I have developed a deep appreciation for the relationship between mental and physical well-being. This background informs my work with people navigating performance pressure, body image, identity, injury, burnout, high expectations, and changing relationships with movement. Wellness-focused therapy considers the many parts of life that influence how we feel and function—including stress, sleep, movement, relationships, coping strategies, and connection to the body.

In our work together, I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can show up as you are. Therapy is not about judging how you have learned to cope or telling you who you should become. My goal is to help you understand yourself with greater compassion, reconnect with your strengths, develop greater self-trust, and move toward healing in a way that feels authentic and aligned with your values.

A little about me…

Outside of my work, I’m a mom, a lifelong athlete, and someone who loves learning and exploring new ideas. I’m always happy to get absorbed in a good book, and I find joy in movement, music, and creativity. I love strength training, practicing handstands, and yoga—but you’re just as likely to find me dancing around the kitchen while I cook or unwinding with a paint-by-numbers and a good playlist.
