About

I’m Liz Fava, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Atlanta, GA. My passion is for seeing individuals and couples establish and restore healthy relationships, and helping people live their lives to the fullest.

I do that through a variety of approaches. I’m holistic, looking at all aspects of your life: mind, body and spirit. I’m trained in the Gottman Method for working with couples, an approach that is research driven and scientifically based for how to make relationships work. I utilize Prepare-Enrich for premarital counseling, and use Brainspotting for anxiety and trauma.

Another thing you need to know about me?

I truly believe your life and your relationships can get better! It will take work, and some time, but it ABSOLUTELY is possible, and I’m here to help you make that happen.
