Hi there, I'm Ellen!

Have you ever felt stuck or confused about how to handle big feelings; your own or your children's? I help clients learn to recognize, name, and manage those confusing emotions through play, arts and crafts, and good old fashioned talk therapy. My goal is to help you learn how to feel more empowered and in control of you.

My focus

Are you feeling overwhelmed with and tired of being on an emotional rollercoaster? I work with families, individuals, and parents who feel overwhelmed with the daily grind and help them find solid ground through building emotional intelligence and resilience. Let me assist you in setting realistic relationship and behavioral goals.

My approach

I use a variety of methods that are age appropriate and encourage insight and growth. I am experienced and able to utilize many modalities. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindful Self-Compassion, and creative play. My approach is based on your current needs and goals for treatment.

My communication style

My priority is making each session about you! We will take the time you need to help you feel comfortable and safe. This space is about your healing journey and personal growth so you can move towards the future you can be excited about.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to becoming a therapist after accepting help in my own parenting journey. I was empowered by some amazing people to help my own children overcome some difficult emotional challenges. It became important to me to pay it forward and use my experiences to empower others to live their best life.

My goals for you

Therapy without direction can be a confusing prospect, so we will work together to help you identify what your goals for therapy look like and how to recognize when you are making progress towards those goals. I recognize that goals vary based on age and life circumstance, so we will consistently be reassessing and adjusting goals as needed.

Our first session

Your first session with me will be all about getting to know each other. You will be invited to share what you feel is necessary for us to start this process, and I understand that the basis of a good therapeutic relationship is trust, so we will move at your pace. This is YOUR journey, and I will be with you every step.
