		Liz Zelvin, CSW-R, ACSW       Hi, I'm Liz. If you have a vision of how you'd like your life to be, but haven't quite figured out how to get there, I can help you set some goals and realize your dreams. As a certified social worker, addictions counselor, psychotherapist, and administrator for more than 17 years, I've had a lot of experience in empowering people to turn wishing into planning and planning into manageable actions. We can work together on negotiating life transitions, improving your workplace and career effectiveness, forming and keeping healthy relationships, overcoming addictions and compulsive behaviors, expressing your creativity, continuing your education, or connecting with your spirituality. I look forward to working with you!
