About Elena
Fact: being human is hard sometimes.
If you're struggling with trauma, mood, family, relationships, work, life changes, or habits and behaviours, I'm here to make it easier.
Together, we can quickly envision what life could be like without your problems. We will set goals for your recovery and map out a clear path to get there, one small, manageable, powerful change at a time. We will set you up for success, eliminate obstacles, and celebrate wins as you begin to notice transformation, big and small.
The relief you seek is possible. I see it every day.
We will work well together if you:
-Want a scientifically supported approach to therapy
-Want a customized plan and combination of approaches that is tailored specifically to you and your unique needs
-Want someone with advanced training in trauma, emotions, relationships, or postpartum disorders
-Want your therapy to feel warm and safe, and to feel heard and understood in your sessions
-Are committed, self-reflective, and open to growth and change.
Our Sessions
Starting therapy is hard enough, so we make it as easy as we can. The exploration call is obligation-free and doesn't cost anything. We simply get a sense of the problem, and give you a safe, non-judging space to ask any questions you may have.
In our sessions, you can expect a safe, supportive space where your story is honored and your goals are prioritized. My approach is both trauma-informed and relational: I integrate evidence-based strategies with warmth, empathy, and respect for your unique journey. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable, focusing not only on symptom relief but also on building resilience, self-understanding, and healthier patterns in your relationships.
Whether you are navigating the impact of past experiences, or seeking to feel more grounded and empowered in your daily life, I am here to walk alongside you.
Take the first step and book a free, no-obligation consultation today.
