Clinician

Elissa is a calm and compassionate licensed marriage and family therapist associate who strives to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to feel understood and empowered to reach their goals. She specializes in trauma, depression, anxiety, life adjustments and family transitions in children and young adults. She is competent in and enjoys working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent populations. Elissa has a person centered approach where you set the pace for therapy- whether you need an understanding therapist who will listen and help you have a deeper connection with and understanding for yourself, or one that provides more direction and concrete objectives week to week, Elissa will meet you where you’re at. With a focus on the impact of trauma and attachment in early childhood, Elissa helps parents support and understand their children. Her therapeutic approaches include DBT, Play Therapy, and person-centered techniques to create a safe place to fully be yourself.

Raised here in Washington, Elissa loves adventuring her home state and finding new reasons to love the PNW. You can find her out exploring a new beautiful place and trying a new coffee shop or at home with a puzzle and cuddling with her two dachshunds.
