Lizzie Dessify, LPC/MHSP, born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, moved to the Greater Nashville area in 2019. She received her Master’s in Mental Health Counseling in 2015 from Waynesburg University. Over the past 9 years, she has worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, providing catered mental health treatment to meet their needs.
Known for a warm, empathetic and trauma-informed approach, Lizzie integrates various therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), and mindfulness-based practices to tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs. She is committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and work towards personal growth.
When not providing therapy, Lizzie enjoys being outside exploring all that Tennessee has to offer (hiking, camping, kayaking), watching her son play sports, watch professional and college sports (Go Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates!), spend time with those she loves, listen to music, and enjoy a good campfire.
