Liz Curtis, MA, LPC, LCPC, CAADC, NCC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Working from a feminist theoretical perspective, I feel that your unique voice deserves to be believed, be heard, and be taken seriously. I believe in creating a trusted space in which you feel comfortable to work through your difficulties, without fear of judgment or discrimination.
My area of specialty is addiction. I am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC). I am also able to treat addictive behaviors such as gambling or spending. I have experience working with both individuals and groups struggling with severe addictions. I am able to connect you with higher levels of care if you need more support in your recovery beyond the outpatient level. I am able to provide substance use evaluations and drivers license restoration evaluations.
I also specialize in LGBTQ+ and women's issues, specifically with transgender folks. I have helped many clients begin their gender transitions, including hormone replacement therapy and gender-affirming surgeries.
Beyond my areas of specialty, I am able to work with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life transitions, relationship difficulties, trauma, personality disorders, and more. I am trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), a treatment uniquely designed for trauma processing.
I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Wayne State University in 2013, and my Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Detroit Mercy in 2019. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois, and I work virtually in both states. I am also a National Certified Counselor (NCC), which is a national board certification. I am able to supervise LLPCs in Michigan.
