Ellen Sibley

My background includes trauma, substance use, crisis intervention, anxiety, OCD, and relationship challenges. I am especially passionate about supporting marginalized communities, particularly women and teens, while creating an inclusive and affirming space for all identities and lived experiences. I believe in breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and helping people feel less alone in what they carry.

My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and tailored to each individual rather than forcing clients into one specific framework. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a reprocessing therapy similar to EMDR. I draw from these approaches based on your unique needs, personality, and goals while balancing evidence-based interventions with authenticity, humor, compassion, and occasional tough love.

I deeply value honesty and real connection in therapy — and while I am warm and empathetic, I also do not f**k around with healing. I believe meaningful change happens when we are willing to be real with ourselves, explore uncomfortable patterns, and challenge the beliefs or behaviors that may be keeping us stuck. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and gently challenged toward growth in a way that feels safe and meaningful for you.

I feel incredibly honored to do this work. I value authenticity, curiosity, trust, and meaningful connection, and I bring those values into the therapy space every day. Healing is hard work, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I’m ready when you are.
