Hi there, I'm Ellen!
I believe all human behavior is oriented toward growth, even if it seems misguided or "crazy". Perhaps you feel out of balance with your emotions, relationships, work, or spirit. I take a psychodynamic approach, working with your deep inner influences to emotions and behavior. My aim is to provide a safe and respectful space for self-exploration.
My focus
You may be experiencing a life transition, relationship issues, or desire to know yourself better. I work with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and spiritual issues. Seeing yourself more clearly and holistically enables you to identify your goals and choose which behaviors you wish to change. My practice is limited to individual adults.
My approach
I use a depth approach to psychotherapy, integrating conscious and unconscious attitudes through non-judgmental listening and empathic response. You already have the answers within you. I work intuitively and blend art and dream work with "talk therapy". This method taps the unconscious to bring out unrealized aspects of your deeper self.
