Hello! My name is Eleanor Bryant, but I go by Ella. The world can feel like a rough place and tricky to navigate. In the midst of that, we need safe spaces to process hurts while learning how to move forward. That's where I come in.

My specialties include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and different presentations of trauma.

Situations change, but the same painful emotions can occur repeatedly, regardless of the content of the situation. Over 30 years experience with individual, couple, child, adolescent and family therapy, grounded in a Bowen Family Systems Theory framework. Research and extensive training in Bowen Family Systems Theory through Syracuse University (Syracuse, N.Y.) and The Bowen Center for the Study of the Family (Washington, D.C.). Experience is important. Being grounded in a specific therapy that a therapist uses in treatment is nonnegotiable.

I welcome individuals and couples who are struggling with sex/intimacy, anxiety, trauma, and identity. Navigating life's challenges can often feel isolating.

We could also work on processing traumas and anxiety, and building your coping toolbox. I'm also a strong advocate (and part of) the LGBTQIA+ community, poly aware, and kink/BDSM aware. I'm continuously updating my knowledge to stay informed of the latest insights, ensuring that I offer relevant and evidence-based approaches.

Has our current health climate inspired you to make a change?

For some, this includes exploring your relationship with the divine, deepening your spiritual identity, or building spiritual practices. For others, it includes exploring spiritual beliefs or values and the degree to which these fit with your personhood. It can involve asking questions, sharing joy, fears, or struggles, getting ‘unstuck’, or creating change in an informed and intentional way.
