Now accepting multiples insurance programs! When trouble arises in life, the emotions that come with it tend to be overwhelming, and it can be hard to find the words to describe the problem. This can block the decision making process and halt forward movement. Seeking outside helps solve this. Some people are skeptical about the role that therapy could play in their life, and I can sympathize. Whether you’re a skeptic, or looking for counsel, please keep reading. 

My job will be to show you just how capable you are. I will teach you how to cope with negative thoughts when they inevitably happen, and help you retrain your brain.
If you’re still reading this far, then I’ve captured your interest. My name is Marla Elliott, and I specialize in working with families. 
With a degree in Child Development and over 30 years of experience in that field; working with me is a sure-fire way to find the best path forward for you and your family.
 I also have experience with grief counseling.
If you have lost a loved one, are going through a divorce, moving, changing jobs, or even suffering from imposter syndrome; I can support you. We will work on processing all emotions that come with these hard periods in life and manage them in a healthy way.
 You may contact me at anytime, and we will begin your journey to a more purposeful life.
