6 Things I Tell my Clients about Healing from Trauma (That You Need to Hear Too).
Hi there! I’m Annie, a therapist at Ellie Mental Health, and I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges with empathy, understanding, and a sense of empowerment. My clinical work spans a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. I work with individuals, couples, and families, and I’m committed to creating a supportive space where clients feel heard and validated.
As a therapist, I take a holistic, strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe that each person is unique and that healing happens when we draw upon your inherent strengths and resilience. I incorporate a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness practices. My goal is to work with you collaboratively, so you feel empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
I understand that therapy can be a big step, and it’s important to me that our work together feels safe, non-judgmental, and focused on your goals. Whether you’re facing specific challenges or simply looking to improve your overall well-being, I’m here to support you on your journey.
Outside of therapy, I’m an avid traveler and outdoor enthusiast. I love hiking with my dogs, exploring nature, and finding new places to unwind. I believe in the power of self-care and regularly engage in activities like spending time in the sauna, which helps me reconnect and recharge.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is compassionate, insightful, and dedicated to helping you reach your full potential, I would love the opportunity to work with you.
