Great to meet you!

Hi there! My name is Ryan Ellison, I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Virginia and I have over 10yrs experience in the field of mental health. I have worked with clients with various needs, including managing depression, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse. I will tailor your treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I am here to empower you in that journey! I look forward to working with you in your therapy journey!

My approach to therapy

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice. CBT is an approach that is used to treat conditions like depression, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders, addictions and various others. I have been trained at the masters educational level in the use of this psycho-therapeutic modality. I have years of experienced working with this approach to treatment and typically see lasting results. I enjoy watching clients expand their thoughts and perspectives with this approach.

What you can expect from me

Life and its issues can be confusing and even overwhelming at times. My goal is to help people find their own inner strength to sail and soar past life's complications, and resolve the issues that may paralyze. I receive so much joy in helping others find the peace they long for, which is what clients should expect during their sessions in therapy.
