This is my first endeavor in therapy, and Ellen could not be a better person to have started with. She listens closely, has great insight, and I truly feel heard and appreciate the time.

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!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
