I am known for my warm, creative, and client-centered approach and work intentionally to create safe, nurturing environments where clients feel seen, supported and empowered. I have experience in a variety of treatment modalities and will collaborate with you to identify and implement the approach that works best for you. You set the tone of the session, I will follow your lead. I will listen to you intently and empathically, validate your experiences and follow up with clarifying and/or open ended questions. I will be more or less directive, depending on what works best for you and provide psycho-education as needed/desired.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we will review documentation and policies, identify treatment goals and discuss treatment preferences.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Clients have expressed appreciation for my sincere, friendly demeanor, empathic validation of experiences and genuine interest/engagement during sessions.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Throughout my career, I have specialized in helping children, adolescents and young adults navigate anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, grief, family conflict, academic struggles, and experiences of abuse and trauma. I enjoy working with diverse populations and respect and integrate a client’s unique cultural background—including race, ethnicity, religion, gender, and sexual orientation—into the treatment process.

In our first session, Elisha was very understanding and opening, she presented goal oriented therapy and laid out a road map of whats to come and how we plan on tackling my mental health journey. She was incredibly understanding and a pleasure to chat with. Looking forward to future sessions!
