Great to meet you!

Life can feel heavy when anxiety won't quiet down, grief lingers, or old trauma keeps resurfacing. I'm Elyse, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 11 years of experience helping people move through anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, substance use, grief, and family struggles. Together we'll work at a pace that feels right for you, so you can heal, grow, and feel like yourself again. I'd love to be part of your journey.

My approach to therapy

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Person Centered
  • Solution Focused
  • Motivational Interviewing

What you can expect from me

From our very first session together, you can expect a space that feels welcoming, respectful, and judgment free. We'll start by talking through what brought you to therapy, whether that's anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or something harder to name, and move at whatever pace feels right for you. My goal is to listen closely and build a collaborative relationship where you feel supported, heard, and hopeful.
