Ellen is an absolute gem! She’s easygoing and just has a way of drawing the important elements of the message out of you like you knew exactly what you needed to do all along! I cherish my time with her and look forward to every session. It’s like talking to my BFF but with advice that actually challenges you and changes you for the better.
More about Ellen
- 27 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Virginia and Colorado with 27 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with relationship issues, anger management, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I am experienced with the military and veteran population and have helped many people dealing with trauma and abuse.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion regardless of the issues, and believe we are all unique and have unique gifts. Sometimes when we are feeling really down on ourselves, it's hard to see them and we begin to believe our negative self-talk. Using a variety of techniques I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process and help you grow.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
