Hi, I'm Ellen, a psychotherapist who treats adults and adolescents 19 and up. I combine psychodynamic techniques with spirituality to create a session that offers both common sense and compassion, and also some creative and fun interventions! I work with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationships, and more. My approach is individualized to respect you and what you need or hope for in therapy. I am a marriage and family therapist with experience in school, clinic, and private practice.
I believe that everyone deserves a space where they feel truly heard, understood, and supported. Life can get overwhelming, and sometimes the goals we set for ourselves feel just out of reach.
My approach to therapy is rooted in genuine connection. I’m here to help you clear the mental clutter, understand your past, rediscover your strengths, and build a practical roadmap toward the life you want to lead.
My specialties and areas of interest are: Depression and Postpartum Depression, Parenting, Anxiety, Trauma-Related Issues.
I graduated University of Denver with my Bachelors and California Lutheran University with my masters degree.
Life can be especially difficult for people today. It is my goal to assist all my clients starting at age 3 years, through adults to learn how to make healthy and positive decisions in their lives and to empower them to have a good, healthy self image and to successfully move into their future.
As a Marriage and Family therapist, I take pleasure in helping clients acquire skills to build healthier relationships.
I work with people ages 13 to 85. Some of the issues I specialize in are adjustment issues, self-esteem, social pressure, issues you may be dealing with that may expected or unexpected.
Life can be challenging and difficult and I am here to help you work through those challenges you are facing in your life. You may be dealing with depression or work-related issues. I strive to make this a safe environment where you are comfortable with sharing what is really going on. I am bilingual in English/Spanish. ;
