Ellen uses a relational and integrative approach in her work with clients. Her supportive presence allows for a sense of safety and security within the therapeutic relationship that permits clients to feel curious and courageous in exploring their inner landscape. Her intention is to walk alongside her clients, as she holds a light that allows for an exploration of a path forward.

She holds that healing happens as we learn how to accept change and uncertainty. She trusts that the more we develop curiosity and presence of our internal experiences, the more we become able live in the moment and respond appropriately to what occurs.
