Ellen has helped me process my thoughts and feelings. Emotional abuse has created anxiety, stress, and depression. Talking with Ellen has been a convenient mode of therapy. She’s great at listening and offering therapeutic support. I recommend her! I also recommend therapy via phone to anyone interested in avoiding driving to and from an office.

More about Ellen

  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Missouri, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients work through depression, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and self-esteem concerns. I offer a compassionate, affirming approach that honors each person's unique journey.

My therapeutic work focuses on critical areas like communication difficulties, social anxiety, isolation, and interpersonal dynamics. I'm particularly committed to supporting women's experiences, addressing challenges related to pregnancy, workplace stress, and personal transformation.

I create a welcoming space for LGBTQ+ individuals and those seeking a progressive, understanding therapeutic environment. My approach is deeply empathetic, designed to help clients develop self-love, process difficult emotions, and build meaningful connections. Together, we'll explore healing pathways that respect your individual experiences and strengths.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
