I am very excited to be a part of Ellie Counseling! My name is Scott Minchello, and I am a humorous, compassionate, and genuine (of course in this field you need to be!) therapist. My overall world view is that everyone deserves to be happy and feel fulfilled, and most things can be worked through given the right time, energy, and resources. My positivity and animated personality allows me to build easy rapport with clients, and my sensitivity creates a
warm therapy environment.
I have worked in the therapy field for over 10 years in many areas, including outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial care, and group home settings. I have run a trauma program as well as clinical case management program. I am competent in a multitude of therapy modalities, including CBT, psychodynamic, humanistic, and solution focused techniques. I
have worked with a very broad range of symptoms, life stressors, and interpersonal conflicts, including couples therapy and family therapy, (which I love doing!)
Now that my therapy experience has been discussed, I want to share some passions of mine! I am a huge concert goer, thoroughly enjoy traveling, and spending some down time reading a good book with a cup of coffee. My dogs also hang out with me while I relax at home, and they definitely bring emotional support! I hope to be a part of your therapeutic
journey and breaking down life barriers!
