My name is Elena, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in millennial mental health for women with a focus on anxiety, depression, chronic illness and pain. I take a more holistic approach to mental health. My mission is to empower my clients with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to effectively manage their pain, improve their emotional well-being, and lead fulfilling lives. I am dedicated to fostering a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their feelings, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and gain a deeper understanding of their pain and its effects on their daily lives. Whether you're looking to reduce the intensity of your chronic pain, regain control over your emotions, or simply seek guidance and support, I am here to help. Together, we can navigate the challenges of chronic pain and create a brighter, more hopeful future. I am someone who deeply values the therapeutic relationship with my clients. I pride myself on creating a safe and collaborative space for my clients to find their truth. I would love the opportunity to be part of your wellness journey so that you can find yourself.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, "the floor is yours." People often lack opportunities to discuss their emotional or physical pain without judgment. I aim to provide a space where you can share your struggles in depth, and we can collaborate on effective treatment options together.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I'm very passionate about millennial mental health and working with women who struggle with anxiety, depression, navigating chronic illness or pain. I believe that millennials are exposed to unique stressors (navigating adulthood) and experiences that need more therapists to hold space to process those challenges.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I like to work with Millennial women, BIPOC, and LGBT communities.
