Elizabeth Spence (She/Her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Intern

Liz is a Marriage and Family Therapy Intern who takes a collaborative and relational approach to therapy. She believes that clients are the experts on their own lives and that therapy is most meaningful when the therapist and client work together to understand what is happening, identify what matters most, and find a path forward. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, Liz works alongside each client to create a therapeutic experience that reflects their unique needs, goals, relationships, and experiences.

Licensed in Michigan

Liz enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families as they navigate relationship concerns, communication challenges, life transitions, and patterns that may be impacting their relationships. She also has a special interest in working with children, adolescents, and families, supporting them as they develop healthier ways of communicating and connecting.

In the therapy room, Liz strives to create a space where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable bringing their whole selves. She believes that feeling truly understood is an important part of the therapeutic process, and she works to build a relationship where clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences without fear of judgment.

Outside of the therapy room, Liz enjoys spending time with her loved ones, exploring the outdoors, going to concerts, and cheering on the Detroit Red Wings!
