Elizabeth Lira, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Clinical Supervisor, Clinical Director Albany

My name is Elizabeth Lira. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of Oregon, license #T1710, and in California, license #102577. Formerly from California, I am now happy to call Oregon my home. While I have always enjoyed spending time outdoors, it has been in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest that I have truly found my home. My favorite places are floating on one of the rivers, hiking in the beautiful forest, or spending time on the Oregon coast. My hobbies include hiking, kayaking, playing guitar, and jewelry making.

Elizabeth's Approach

I take an integrated approach to therapy though my main modality is EMDR. I am passionate about helping individuals accomplish their therapeutic goals and move past traumatic events.
