Hi, I’m Elizabeth McCauley

I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan, including college students, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, perfectionism, and major life transitions. Much of my work focuses on supporting people through vocational and career development, relationship challenges, and periods of uncertainty—such as the transition into or out of college, job changes, and geographic relocations.

I deeply respect the courage it takes to begin—or return to—therapy. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you can slow down, reflect, and explore your inner world at a pace that feels right. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build resilience, clarify what matters most, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy finding inspiration through books, meaningful conversations, and time spent in the city. I often recommend reads such as Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, What Happened to You?, Quit Like a Woman, and Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, along with podcasts like ShrinkChicks, The Psychology of Your 20s, Hidden Brain, 10% Happier, and Where Should We Begin. In Boston, I love visiting the ICA, attending free outdoor workout classes, walking through Beacon Hill in the fall, and stopping by Bova’s for a sweet treat.

My Approach

I am especially passionate about supporting women through mental health challenges across different life stages, including family planning, fertility concerns, postpartum experiences, identity shifts, caregiving roles, sexuality, work–life balance, and the complex expectations placed on women. I also enjoy working with young adults and college students as they navigate early adulthood, identity development, academic pressure, and career-related stress.

My therapeutic style is warm, client-centered, and grounded in respect, empathy, and genuine human connection. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based techniques. My integrative approach is flexible and inclusive, adapting to each person’s unique identity, values, goals, and lived experience.
