About

Liz Buford, LCSW, has over ten years of experience in the mental health field. She began her career in Pennsylvania working as a mental health technician and live-in care provider for children with dual diagnoses. Upon her “big move” to Florida in 2010, Liz began working as a therapist in the juvenile justice system, where she remained for over nine years. She gained tremendous experience working with children with behavioral problems, sexual concerns, learning disabilities, severe trauma, and an array of other mental health issues. Promoted several times after her supervisors saw she also excelled at social work’s administrative and leadership side. This lead to her earning the title of Clinical Director at a large residential facility in Orlando. In 2019, she believed it was time to find new ways to serve. She became the Director of Behavioral Health at a local federally qualified health center, where she helped develop the newly added department and provided therapy services to children and adults. With the arrival of Covid-19, Liz dedicated her time on the front lines to supporting clients through unprecedented mental stressors. In 2021, she and her husband decided it was time to branch out as entrepreneurs. Liz is excited to continue serving her community and other clinicians through the innovative combination of services that We Matter offers!
