Elena Lange

Welcome! My name is Elena, and I am so happy you have chosen to pursue therapy. I believe a therapist should be kind and approachable, but also provide "evidence-based" therapeutic techniques. Evidence based means that the techniques have been researched and found that they work to solve specific issues. I am focused on using evidence based therapeutic techniques, but also feel that developing a kind and supportive relationship with a client is very important. I would be happy to work with you. I have been in practice for 37 years and have worked with numerous clients, helping them navigate a wide range of issues and concerns. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression. I attended LSU for my bachelor's degree and Florida State University for my master's degree in Social Work. Contact me and we can talk about it, see if we are a good fit.

I use a variety of techniques in therapy, formulated specifically for you. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization Therapy for trauma, Cognitive Behavior Therapy for anxiety and depression, and Interpersonal Therapy to address all of these issues, but specifically daily living problems. Different techniques work for different symptoms. In the "therapy world", therapeutic techniques can be described as "evidenced based." This just means that social scientists have conducted studies and found that the techniques work to solve the issues at hand.

You can take away from therapy with me a new sense of hope and a renewed belief in the world. The plan is to have your symptoms reduce over the course of treatment. This sometimes happens quickly and sometimes takes a bit longer. But the goal is definitely for you to be living your best life!
