Professional statement

Elana’s style and approach are eclectic, based on the client's needs and desired goals. She uses person-centered and strength-based practices including trauma-informed care, CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness through a holistic lens. Her goal for you is to build self-awareness, to become the best version of yourself, and give you the tools to build the life you want.

Message to clients

I'm naturally compassionate, empathetic, and patient, which is why becoming a therapist was a logical fit for me. I am passionate in my desire to help you achieve your goals. I provide a judgment-free space for you to explore any personal issues that are causing you distress. Sometimes we just need someone to talk to, to take that first step toward healing. I invite you on this journey to collaborate with me on the steps we can take together to work through your feelings and concerns.
