Dr. Elisabeth Andreeff is a postdoctoral fellow working toward licensure under the supervision of Dr. Ryan Kozina and Dr. Anne-Pier Voyer. She obtained her B.A. in Psychology from New York University and her PsyD from the PAU-Stanford PsyD Consortium.
She enjoys working with children, adolescents, and adults. She has expertise in treating OCD and anxiety disorders (including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and health anxiety), as well as skin-picking and hair-pulling, tic disorders, and body dysmorphic disorder. She also works with clients experiencing relationship difficulties, identity concerns, life transitions, ADHD, and difficulties with emotion regulation. She tailors treatment to each individual’s needs and goals, drawing from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Motivational Interviewing, habit reversal training (HRT), and Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT).
Dr. Andreeff has specialized training in OCD and anxiety disorders. Prior to graduate school, she facilitated OCD support groups at the Peace of Mind Foundation and participated in OCD research at Baylor College of Medicine. Her graduate training included clinical and research experiences in Stanford’s OCD Research Lab, OCD Clinic, and ADAPT Clinic. For her dissertation, she developed and pilot tested a group therapy intervention integrating exposure therapy with improv comedy exercises for the treatment of OCD. She completed her predoctoral internship at Baylor College of Medicine on the OCD Track. Her broader clinical training included academic medical centers, schools, and community clinics.
Dr. Andreeff approaches therapy collaboratively and strives to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment in which clients feel understood and supported while also being encouraged to challenge patterns that are no longer serving them. She especially values helping clients reduce avoidance, engage in meaningful activities, and build values-aligned lives.
