(she/her)
Hello ... I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have a master of social work degree from North Carolina A&T State University and UNC at Greensboro. I have provided counseling to many in my community in diverse employment roles across the field of social work. Some include experience working in inpatient psychiatry, medicine, hospice, and dialysis at a community hospital, and mobile crisis clinician with a community mental health agency; and finally VA Health Care. I take pride in my ability to connect with others and help them meet personal and/or professional goals. In my spare time, I love to read psychological thrillers, listen to my favorite podcasts and audiobooks, play Match 3D on my phone, and watch movies with my son.
In our first session, I want to get to know you. I strive to understand your strengths, concerns, and goals.
I thrive on my ability to connect and partner with clients to give them the effective tools to navigate life's challenges. I use active listening and understand the benefits of building rapport with my clients.
I am best positioned to serve those clients who are seeking to care to improve and/or enhance their life, health, and mental well-being

Ellecia was so amazing! My spouse has been against therapy for 30 years and after one session with her he is looking forward to our next session. It felt safe to be vulnerable. Her warm spirit kept us engaged.

Ms. Ellecia is my “Go To” therapist because she is solution oriented and easy to talk too. I find that it helps me to grow and feel better when I can lay my truths on the table with her, and she does not make me feel like I am being dramatic about things.
