ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dr. Elizabeth
Brewer, Psy.D.

My path has been shaped as much by movement as by psychology. I’ve spent more than 17 years working as a movement therapist, yoga teacher, aquatic therapist, and dancer. That experience informs the way I listen.

Alongside my work with the body and mind, I teach in graduate psychology education.
