Elizabeth Ocheltree, LPC
Elizabeth received a Masters degree in Somatic Counseling from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. She has experience working at an outpatient counseling center and as a school-based play therapist has given me the opportunity to work with people from many walks of life, including all ages and those who present a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, relational problems, grief, and self-esteem. She is a certified Synergetic Play Therapist, and also has training in Internal Family Systems, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. She offers an integrative, body-centered approach that is informed by neurobiology, mindfulness, and each unique client.

Cancellation and Refund Policy
If you can no longer attend a workshop you have registered for, you may be eligible to either receive a credit for another workshop, or receive a refund if you are within the refund policy period. All live workshop refunds will be honored, less a $10 processing fee for cancellations received at least seven (7) days prior to the date of a live webinar or in-person workshop. For cancellation or credit requests with 6 days or less notice, a refund less a $55 processing fee may be refunded or credited to another workshop. For same day cancellations for workshops with a waiting list, no refund will be issued. Unfortunately, we cannot issue refunds for On-Demand (Asynchronous) webinars due to the fact that once purchased, the participant has access immediately to all materials.
Refunds will also not be issued due to technical limitations of the participant. We provide detailed instructions, and we are happy to assist in this area to a reasonable extent; however, we don’t have the staff to guide you through every step of the process.
Should you have any questions regarding our workshop refund policy, please contact Brandy Rogers (770) 904-1661 or [email protected].
