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.

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. In individual or group settings, we problem-solve and navigate the infinite life changes, challenges, and circumstances that affect clients. 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. Continuing to misunderstand and mismanage emotions can escalate mental health symptoms into depression, anger, anxiety, grief, inadequacy, and stress. I assist my clients in developing workable tools and skills to help them navigate a spectrum of emotions. Outside of work, I focus on my own mental health. My social supports are my close friends and family and my religion. I am a believer in God, a wife, a gamer, a daughter, a sister, a niece, a cousin, and a friend. I enjoy movies, swimming, reading, learning, researching, and helping others. Let me help you find your peace.

Enacting change in our lives is never easy, especially when it pertains to our mental health and our relationships. However, it is a worthwhile process that can have a profound impact on your life and the lives of those closest to you. The healthier we are in these areas the healthier we are as individuals, family members, friends, and coworkers. My goal is to create a safe, therapeutic atmosphere for you to explore these areas and enact the change that you need to be a happier and more whole version of yourself. As a LMFT, I practice an evidence-based family systems approach. I believe great insight and change can occur when a family system understands how each member may be contributing to a particular issue. My therapeutic approach looks different for each client as I aim to match my interventions and technique with the strengths of my clients. I also utilize theories such as solution focused therapy, Bowenian family systems theory, cognitive behavioral therapy, and the common factors approach. I use these approaches to help my clients realize their strengths and attributes and utilize them in a way that contributes to healing and growth as clients reach the goals that we have collaboratively set.
