Hi, I’m Ellen — I’m so glad you’re here.
Seeking therapy is a powerful step, and I’m honored to hold space for people navigating life’s complexities — especially LGBTQ+ individuals and young adults figuring out who they are, who they want to become, and how to move through the world with more ease and authenticity.
I work from a collaborative, client-centered lens: therapy with me is never one-size-fits-all. Your voice and lived experience guide the process.
I incorporate narrative therapy to help clients make sense of their identities/experiences, alongside practical tools — like DBT skills — that you can carry into everyday life to manage stress, relationships, and emotions with more confidence
Whether you’re working through anxiety, identity exploration, relationship issues, or just feeling stuck, my goal is to help you feel supported and empowered. Therapy with me is a space for both deep reflection and real-world growth.
If this sounds like what you’re looking for, I’d love to connect.
