Liz Yarock, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist in New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist with a primary focus on women and adolescent mental health. For 15+ years, I’ve supported adults and adolescents coping with anxiety, relationships, life transitions, self-confidence, ADHD, and academic/professional pressures. My approach is rooted in compassion, with the understanding that true healing unfolds when we feel fully seen, heard, and supported.
I am passionate about helping women and girls realize their fullest potential and step into the most authentic version of themselves. I believe therapy is most effective when it’s personalized, so I approach each client with compassion and attunement to their unique needs. Together, through meaningful self-discovery and dedicated support, you’ll gain deeper insight into your past and present, develop coping strategies aligned with your goals, and experience a renewed sense of clarity and hope.
Approach:
I believe people grow and heal best in a therapeutic space that is open, non-judgemental, supportive, and grounded in compassion. Within this framework, my intention is to support you in identifying what matters to you most and taking steps toward creating the life you want.
As an integrative therapist, I use various therapy modalities and techniques to help you discover and build upon your unique inner strengths to live a more fulfilling and balanced life. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic therapy and deeply informed by CBT, ACT, Mindfulness, and mind-body techniques.
My therapeutic style is warm, engaged, compassionate, and deeply intuitive. I care greatly about the individuals I work with and believe it's a privilege to support you in your therapy journey. In our work you'll find that I'm deeply empathic, curious, and attentive. I balance this with an interactive approach to psychotherapy. As an active therapist, you'll discover that I am deeply motivated to help you achieve a meaningful and fulfilling life.
I believe the human spirit is incredibly strong, resilient, and capable of achieving personal growth and healing with both the right support and focus. Psychotherapy is a powerful way to start your journey towards making lasting changes in your life.

Prioritize Your Well-Being Through Holistic Psychotherapy
I utilize a holistic approach to therapy that takes into consideration the many interrelated parts of the human experience (biological, emotional, cognitive, relational, cultural, and spiritual).
I employ a collaborative and strength-based style of therapy for women. Together we'll identify and build upon your unique strengths, capabilities, and inner-wisdom. Through a compassionate and non-judgmental lens, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and tune into your body cues in new ways to promote a deeper sense of understanding and healing. I will provide you with practical and powerful tools to manage every day life stressors as they arise.
