Meet Ellen

I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, phobias, emotional regulation, life transitions, and relationship challenges—whether at home, work, or within themselves. As humans, we can get stuck in patterns that feel draining or overwhelming. I view therapy as a collaborative process that helps clarify what matters most, improve communication, and support meaningful change. My goal is to help you enhance your quality of life by tending to your mental and emotional well-being.
