About Elise

Life can bring periods of stress, anxiety, uncertainty, and overwhelm, and no one should have to face these challenges alone. I strive to provide a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you feel genuinely heard, valued, and accepted for who you are. I view therapy as a collaborative journey, one where your unique experiences are respected and explored with curiosity and compassion. Together, we can work toward understanding life's challenges, finding meaning in your experiences, and developing practical tools to navigate difficult emotions and situations with greater confidence. My goal is to help you recognize and build upon your existing strengths while fostering greater clarity, purpose, and connection in your life. Drawing on over fifteen years of experience in healthcare, I have supported individuals through trauma, grief, profound loss, uncertainty, and major life transitions. These experiences have strengthened my appreciation for the resilience and courage people possess, even in the midst of adversity. They have also shaped my holistic approach to care, recognizing the interconnected nature of emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Areas of Interest: Anxiety, stress, and sleep-related concerns Trauma, including first responder trauma Perinatal mental health Health anxiety Career-related stress, workplace burnout, and life transitions Relationship and interpersonal challenges
