Josh Ellis
Through connection, empathy and a non-judgmental approach, I offer ways to help you discover what may be blocking you from finding your true path in life. By not seeing an individual for what symptoms they have or what is affecting them, I am more interested in helping you find what is the cause of symptoms and how to process them. I work with adults from all backgrounds. I am also open to any culture, belief, identification or orientation. All are welcome. I base all individual therapy on a client-focused approach and adapt sessions to the needs of each person.

First session
I begin all sessions by reviewing informed consent, practice policy and privacy practices. Next, I let clients ask any questions they have of me (who I am, how I work, etc.), since I'm not sure who actually reads my bio. Lastly, I provide the choice of letting clients talk about reasons for coming to therapy or I can ask questions to get things started.
Strengths
Everyone has their own individual path in life and no two people are exactly the same. My career path as a therapist had several stops along the way, including college athletics and non-profit food banks. I would be honored to have the opportunity to not only learn your story but join with you in moving towards your goals and path in life.
Ideal clients
I am interested in working with those who are going through important life changes/stages and need help processing, unpacking or getting organized to take the next step in life.
