I work individually with children, adolescents, adults, and families and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you! I believe that every individual has the ability and personal strength to learn, grow, adapt, and change. As your therapist, we will work together to facilitate growth, develop new skills, and foster healing. My hope and intention is that you will leave each session feeling heard, respected, and hopeful. My belief is that you are the expert on your own needs and have the personal strength and capacity to meet them. Every individual experiences their own unique feelings and thoughts, and therapy is a safe place to express them in a supportive and respectful environment. I use a variety of theoretical approaches and evidence-based techniques to support you in meeting your counseling goals. I have experience working with clients of all ages. I will aim to help you better understand your emotions and thoughts and will assist you in developing the skills to manage those feelings and thoughts when they become unpleasant.

I take special pride in providing individual therapy to adult clients who are overfunctioners or perfectionists in the face of stress, those who demonstrate compassion towards others but have difficulty extending the same compassion to themselves, individuals who feel stretched thin by the demands of their life, those who wish to explore their relationship with drugs and/or alcohol or have a loved one with a substance use issue, and individuals impacted by trauma. Clients often work with me to address their anxiety (including OCD), depression, substance use, stress related to life changes, and relational difficulties. I believe the counseling experience needs to be tailored to the individual needs of each client and strive for my clients to experience me as welcoming, thoughtful, straightforward, and caring. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Ritual Prevention (ExRP) for OCD, and EMDR in my work with clients. I see clients through Full Life Counseling & Recovery which has its roots in substance use and recovery services, but offers a wide array of services for those seeking support for concerns outside of substance use, too. Right now I am seeing clients solely through telehealth and have morning and mid-day availability.

Do you ever feel something is just off and you can't put your finger on it? Do you know something is wrong and you want to talk with someone, but you don't feel comfortable talking with your friends and/or family? Are you fighting anxiety, stress, anger, grief and maybe some other issues and you want to feel better? AW Counseling is a safe place to be able to come and talk out those feelings, thoughts and emotions and be able to devleop new skills. I have been counseling individuals, couples and families for nearly 16 years and I get asked, "what is your success rate?" My answer is "zero." That is because the success that happens in this space isn't mine, but it is yours. I can help you develop coping skills, help you walk through grief, learn to set boundaries and more. Talking with a stranger may sound scary and a little strange; however, AW Counseling offers a warm environment so you can be yourself in order to help you become the person you want to be, release feelings you want to let go and develop skills to help you adjust to whatever life may be throwing at you. Counseling isn't always easy but it is healthy.

Thank you for considering working with me as your counselor. I work individually and in groups with adolescents, adults, couples and families. I approach counseling from a person-centered theoretical background, meaning I believe that each person has within themselves the tools to grow, change, heal and improve. It is my goal to help individuals access those personal resources and grow in their personal self-efficacy. Self-awareness and self-efficacy, while goals in the counseling relationship, are difficult to achieve and will take time, energy, and client engagement. Clients will feel that they are able to face life's challenges. While I am trained in person-centered counseling and EMDR, I also draw on other counseling theories and techniques in my practice. I approach clients from a family systems perspective to identify existing patterns, work to set goals or changes clients would like to implement in their lives, consider obstacles, and plan how to reach the desired goals. Because I believe that no person exists on an island, we may talk about things like your family, how you came to be the way you are, how you experience emotions, communication skills and more. In coming to therapy, I believe that client’s are taking a brave step in prioritizing their mental health and wellness and we will partner to work towards healing.

Have you ever felt like you weren’t being heard? That others don’t really understand what you are going through? Or perhaps they do listen, only to give you unsolicited advice in an attempt to be helpful. Perhaps you want focus on problems related to alcohol and substance use, communication skills, or relationship concerns. Maybe your most urgent concern is alleviating symptoms of depression, anxiety, and grief. Or, you may be grappling with overwhelming life questions that either don't make sense or seem to have no answers. My work with clients tends to be conversational and relaxed, trusting that you already hold an internal wisdom that's waiting for you to tap into as a resource for creating the life you want. You may feel scared to look inward to discover what’s preventing you from living the life you desire. I offer a safe and comforting space to explore those barriers. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and parents. I honor the diversity of human experience, respecting differences in gender expression, sexual identity, race, ethnicity, spirituality, and non-traditional relationship structures. Wherever you come from, and wherever you're headed, I am honored to be a part of your journey.

I work with clients who are dealing with different issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. Together we set goals in order to overcome or manage the obstacles that each issue brings. I believe that each person is an expert in their own story, and that each individual has their own sets of triumphs and roadblocks. My job is to promote a welcoming and safe space for each person to freely express what's on their mind, while also advocating for personal growth! I have always had a desire to help people, and counseling is how I get to do that! I invite you to the world of therapy, as I believe every person deserves a chance to have their story be heard.

I work with individuals of various ages and concerns, such as anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, addictions, and other mental health concerns. As a therapist, I strive to create an environment in which you feel accepted, respected, and heard. Throughout the counseling process we will work together to help you achieve your goals and make the changes you would like to see in your life. I apply a number of techniques based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Mindfulness Theory. However, I believe every individual is unique so I use the tools, techniques, and theories that are the best fit you. I received my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and an addictions certificate from Western Kentucky University. Before getting my master’s, I majored in Psychology at Valdosta State University in Georgia I strive for every client to feel comfortable, safe, understood, and accepted without any judgments in every session. I was born and raised in Georgia, and in my free time, I enjoy hiking, fishing, golf, basketball, volleyball, video games, and swimming.

Life can be viewed as a series of successes and disappointments. We often have people who support us in the highs but may not know how to help us through the lows. I would be honored to be that person for you! While we cannot be perfect, we can be healthy in mind, body, and spirit! I believe that God can use every event, mistake, achievement, frustration, setback and triumph to help us prosper and be well. I use Christian Counseling as a means to connect our pain and mental challenges to living in balance between the highs and lows. I work with adolescents, adults, and families. I have experience with issues of depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, relational issues, and substance abuse. I use interactive interventions with talk therapy in the client experience.

One of my favorite quotes by Melody Beattie conveys the essence of our counseling relationship: “Learn to listen to your inner voice. Listen to your heart. It’s your connection to God, to people, to the universe, and to yourself." My goal is to create a safe and positive environment allowing you an opportunity to explore and grow in self-awareness as you learn more about how to identify new strategies and cope with your circumstances in healthy ways. I believe in the power of individuals to change as they work toward common goals with their therapist, drawing upon person-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches. Specialty areas include individual, couples and family counseling for those who have experienced loss of loved ones, substance use disorders, life transitions such as divorce and career changes, aging, stress, anxiety and depression. I offer counseling for children ages 5-12 who are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, school, divorce, and relationships. It takes a great deal of courage to make the decision to pursue counseling. While life changes may seem overwhelming when faced alone, they can become more manageable when you collaborate with a counselor. When I first reached out to a counselor I admit that i was scared and uncomfortable, but after engaging in the process, my life slowly began to change.

My name is Elana, and I aim to provide clients with brave, rational, and honest spaces. I enjoy working with individuals 13+, families, and couples as they pursue their goals.

Changes can be uncomfortable, but they are a normal and healthy part of life. Contact me if you are struggling to address symptoms of shame, low self-esteem, depression, being overwhelmed, anxiety, perfectionism, and loss/ grief. Sometimes, a person’s experiences can create emotions that are difficult to understand. The person may feel “alone” or that their problem is “too big”. I can help you.
