Hi, I’m Elena!
Starting therapy takes a lot of courage—and if you’re even considering it, I already see that bravery in you. I know that not everyone has had a positive experience with therapy, and I believe finding the right fit matters. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are, without judgment, and to walk alongside you on your healing journey with honesty, warmth, and respect.
I show up as a real human in the therapy room—someone who’s deeply curious about your story and who believes that meaningful change comes from feeling truly seen and supported. I believe you are the expert on your life, and I’m here to help you understand patterns, explore emotions, and build tools that work for you.
I specialize in working with adolescents and families, particularly in navigating trauma, sexual behavior concerns, and relationship challenges. I’ve spent the last several years working in intensive in-home settings, using evidence-based approaches like MST-PSB, CBT, TF-CBT, and relational models including attachment therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I’m also growing my work with couples and individuals looking to deepen connections, improve communication, and better understand themselves in relationships.
