Get to Know Liz
Liz Lucarelli, LCMHC
Greetings, and welcome to Lucarelli Wellness! I’m Liz, an experienced and energetic clinician who is passionate about helping people discover their best and most authentic selves. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with hundreds of remarkable young people, parents, and professionals and consider it an honor to contribute to the well-being of such extraordinary people.
My energy and approach are distinctive. I blend clinical intention with a playful, curious, and authentic relational style. I incorporate creative arts and experiential modalities into my clinical work to help clients gain awareness, learn new skills, and breathe life into aspects of themselves they might not otherwise explore. My ultimate goal is for my clients to appreciate their unique qualities, talents, and significance.
My qualifications as a clinician include a Master’s in Community Counseling from Western Carolina University, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina and Utah, a National Certified Counselor (NCC), a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S), and a Board-Certified Coach (BCC). I have extensive training in trauma, attachment, play therapy, sand tray, and childhood development.
Beyond my professional pursuits, my passions include learning, exploration, and travel. I am an avid long-distance runner and complete several ultramarathons each year. For me, each trail run unveils another layer of potential within myself, an experience I hope all my clients discover during our time together.
Thank you for considering me as your copilot in this transformative chapter of life!
How We Work Together
Starting your journey towards personal growth is an important decision, and choosing the right guide for this path is crucial. I’m here to build a relationship based on trust, understanding, and care. It’s normal to feel unsure about how to make changes or to not know where to start. I understand these feelings and focus on providing a compassionate and clear path forward.
I believe in working closely with you to develop strategies that are specifically suited to your needs and goals. This means you’ll always feel listened to and supported as we work toward what you want to achieve.
Take the First Step
We will begin with a consultation call to determine if my services are a good match for your needs. We will explore what you’re hoping to gain from therapy or coaching, and I will share my process and approach.
Identify Your Goals
If we are a good fit, we will dive deeper into your goals, hopes, fears, and needs. These things may shift over time, however, identifying them early on will give us a solid foundation we can return to. It’s important to have a sense of where you’d like your journey to go.
Chart Your Path
Collaboration is a key component of our work together. We’ll join our lived experiences, wisdom, and knowledge to help create a plan of action for you that feels reasonable and attainable.
Ignite Your Journey
Once we have a sense of where we’re going and how to there, we will launch into our work together! The path to change can be a challenging yet highly rewarding experience. I’m here to partner with you on that journey.
