What families say about our psychologists in Sumter

5.0from 200+ session ratings in the last year

I felt seen. I felt heard. I felt supported. So glad I found emora health, and Dr. Liz! She has been phenomenal.

An Adult client · Sep 25, 2026

Today I finally accomplished something that I have been putting off for years- getting help for myself. This can feel daunting to most and is truly nerve recking unless you find a Dr. who is compassionate and helpful at every step and I found just that in Dr. Nitsch. I have only had a consultation so far but I have never felt more seen and understood in my life. Dr. Nitsch is a gem and I am happy God placed her in my life. Hoping for a smooth process in this journey.

The session was overall very helpful and i enjoyed talking with Liz. She walked me through each question and even related on some topics. She is very flexible and understanding and will assist with scheduling when she can.
