Hi there, I'm Elyse!

Hello, and thanks for being here. I’m Elyse, an LCSW licensed in CA, CT, and NH. I specialize in working with youth, caregivers, and women, helping you tap into your strengths through evidence-based therapy. My goal is to create a steady, supportive space where you can build confidence, resilience, and real, lasting change.

My focus

I’m especially passionate about supporting: Youth (ages 8–18) who are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, or behavioral challenges Women who are managing anxiety, fertility issues, postpartum transitions, or parenting stress

My approach

I draw on proven modalities like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) to guide our work together. My therapy is goal-oriented, collaborative, and practical — I help you practice skills between sessions so you can feel progress quickly.
