Trauma-Informed Therapy
Work through unresolved trauma and identify the areas of your life that trauma has impacted. Trauma-informed therapy means working with a therapist who has a deep understanding of the many ways trauma can affect your life and your overall sense of self, safety, and well-being.
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy is a cutting-edge, evidence-backed treatment approach for treating trauma, anxiety, depression, and a wide range of mental health disorders. EMDR therapy often involves you talking about your trauma while moving your eyes back and forth to reprocess the traumatic experience.

Ellie Mental Health Testimonials
She’s the best therapist I’ve ever had and cares so deeply about what I share. She’s genuine, caring, and so funny. Love that she’s BIPOC. #solidarity.
I’m a very complex person with ASD, ADHD, PTSD and I’m queer and polyamorous. I struggle with finding therapists that meet all my needs. Ellie makes me feel seen, supported and encouraged. This place changes lives!
I have never seen my daughter so happy talk to somebody in her life. She understands my daughter, she relates to my daughter, I’ve never seen a therapist like her before and we’ve seen many. My daughter feels heard, validated, understood and appreciated.
I have a hard time being emotionally vulnerable around anyone and everyone but Liz just knows exactly what to do! I’ve never met someone who can read me like a book before and she makes it comfortable. She doesn’t push me to talk about what’s happened to me but she helps me understand why I do things because of it.
It would be hard to overstate how life-changing it has been to work with Xoel. He provided a context to understand my childhood and adult life in a way I never would have and support to break out of harmful patterns. He is kind and empathetic and patient and not only never shames me but tries to guide me not to shame myself.
