Hello and welcome. Elle Ortega (she/her) is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW 109661), and a highly skilled and compassionate clinician. Elle brings with her a near decade-long history of hospital-based care as a medical social worker; supporting patients and their families in both in-patient care and outpatient care clinics including in-patient psychiatry, emergency medicine, ICU, urgent care, internal and family medicine, nephrology peritoneal dialysis (PD), oncology, palliative medicine, med/surg, NICU, Labor and Delivery (L&D), and Family-centered care (FCC).
Elle most enjoys working with adults age 18+ and has vast experience supporting clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship problems, and difficulty adjusting to change(s).
Elle begins with an open heart, a strong sense of empathy, and the essence of an old friend, who always keeps things real and without judgment - no matter the time or distance since our last meeting. So come as you are, get comfy and cozy, and we’ll dive on in together.
