Psychotherapy can be very helpful to many people who find life more difficult than they would like it to be. Starting psychotherapy is not easy and I will help you navigate appropriate treatment choices. When you come in, I will listen carefully to what you are going through. It is important for me that you feel safe and respected. Together we will try to understand your challenges and begin to make helpful changes. You will not be labeled. We will figure out the goals of treatment and work towards your goals at your own pace. I also conduct psychological and psychoeducational assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. If you need a diagnostic clarification, have questions about your child's learning or emotional functioning, then assessment can be tremendously useful. I will make sure that assessment recommendations are clear, and specific, and address your questions. I am authorized to practice telehealth psychotherapy in 33 states where PSYPACT is effective, including AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, CNMI, DC, DE, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MN, MO, NE, NV, NH, NC, NJ, OH, OK, PA, TN, TX, UT, VA WV, WI.

Do you feel life is spiraling out of control? Or you have to be everything to everyone else but feel alone when you’re in need? Are you having trouble meeting expectations? Or saying “No" then resenting saying yes? Do you put everyone before you and then don't have enough time for you or your dreams? Are you feeling “stuck” after giving so much, then to realize you’re not making progress in your life? More often than we realize, we tend to lose ourselves giving what we don’t have while trying to manage it all; parenthood, relationships, careers, and life situations. We then become overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or stuck. I specialize in working with busy Moms and Single-parents struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, as well as couples (dating, premarital, married) and Black men. As a Black Therapist, I understand the unique experiences of Black people in America and how these experiences contribute to depression, anxiety and stress. I am confident that together we can work to bring more awareness of your own needs, feelings and thoughts, to improve your situation and build your toolbox with tools to help you manage it all. I make it easy to fit therapy into your busy life by offering virtual sessions with evenings and weekend availability. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation.

Immediate openings as of 11/1; virtual only. Hi, I'm Elise! I enjoy working with 1) young adults & teens entering/surviving the adulting world 2) stressed out men & women- I connect well with both 3) those with painful childhood experiences- adult adoptees welcome 4) those with chronic pain/illness. As a person who has both personal & professional experience with chronic pain/illness, my work is what gets me out of bed in the morning! My approach? I am supportive & a little spunky, but also gently challenge you so that you can reach your goals. Christian counseling available upon request. You might find me introducing distress tolerance skills (DBT), help you observe thoughts, feelings and behaviors (CBT), connect the dots from past experiences to current relationships (attachment theory), & explore the different parts of yourself that pop up when triggered (IFS). I previously owned my own art studio, so I am happy to incorporate art. According to Elise, “Art has the power to transform and heal, and yet so too does communication with a highly empathetic and trained individual, especially when it comes to trauma. By combining various theoretical perspectives, I am able to connect with clients and meet them where they are, so we can work together to get to where they want to go.”

People choose to work with a therapist for many important reasons. Are you feeling overwhelmed by your current situation or distracted by events of the past? Are you having difficulty meeting your goals, sustaining change, or managing your behavior? Are you dissatisfied with personal or work relationships or, perhaps, others are dissatisfied with you? Are you looking for support on your own journey of self-exploration? Therapy offers you an opportunity to re-gain your balance, relieve stress, get support for meeting your goals, build good relationships with others, and gain insight. I am a Level-3 trained Certified Internal Family Systems Therapist and Consultant. IFS helps you make sense of your experience, accept who you are, and build new ways of making your best decisions. I particularly like working with psychotherapists as they gain an understanding of their own parts and learn how to apply IFS to their own clients.
