As a compassionate and trauma-informed psychotherapist, Elena brings a dynamic and holistic approach to counseling. By weaving together several modalities—such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness and grief yoga movement—she crafts personalized treatment plans that honor each client’s unique experiences and strengths. Elena is deeply passionate about the mind-body connection, mindfulness, and the powerful role of grief yoga movement in healing. Whether you're struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief or simply seeking greater wellness, Elena is here to support your journey towards healing and growth. She enjoys working with first responder, older adults and women. Her dynamic, personality-centered style encourages clients to explore new perspectives, build resilience, and strengthen their support networks. As a trained social worker Elena recognizes how systems and environments shape mental health, she advocates for the importance of community, connection, and compassionate care. Clients value her client-focused approach and unique perspective as a two-time immigrant, which has given her profound insights into the challenges of trauma, resilience, and the vital importance of mental health. When Elena is not in the therapy room, you can find her hiking, reading, and cherishing quality time with family and friends. Ready to take the next step? Let's connect!
