Ache and Awe Therapy

I'm honored you're considering Ache and Awe Therapy as part of your therapeutic journey. I'm Elizabeth Gleason, founder of Ache and Awe Therapy. At the heart of my work is the belief that life can hold both deep ache and profound hope—sometimes at the very same time. Whether you're navigating infertility, pregnancy or postpartum, grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or a season of change, therapy can provide a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and heal at your own pace. I believe meaningful healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship. Creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and genuinely known is the foundation of my work. From there, I integrate evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs to help foster meaningful, lasting change. My work draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), attachment-based interventions, and trauma-informed practices to support healing from a holistic perspective. I am also currently completing training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which will further expand the ways I can help clients process difficult experiences and move toward healing. If you're looking for a compassionate, collaborative space to navigate life's challenges, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
