Hello! I am Ellen Heckerman, LSCSW, I have 48 years' experience in counseling with families, and individuals, both adults and children. I enjoy helping clients become their best self and beginning to flourish. Some of the areas I specialize in are Family therapy, marital therapy, treating ADHD in adults and children, treating depression and anxiety, and adjustment disorders . I am a Christian counselor and I can work with you from a faith-based perspective if you like.
I have a holistic approach, treating the whole person, not just a set of symptoms. My goal for you is that your life will be enriched and that continuous growth and thriving will always be a part of your life. I will work with you to help you learn to help yourself, for a lifetime.
When we work together, you can expect a steady, supportive partner who is fully invested in your goals. Early on, we'll focus on understanding what brought you here and what you want to be different.
Over time, most of my clients notice real shifts: less anxiety and reactivity, a calmer relationship with anger, and more confidence under stress. You'll build coping skills you can use long after our work ends, communicate more openly with the people who matter, and set boundaries that protect your peace.
My hope is that you leave therapy not just feeling better, but understanding why — with tools you trust and a clearer sense of who you are. Change is possible, wherever you're starting from, and you don't have to do it alone.
