About
She specializes in working with individuals who are interested in exploring trauma, identity shifts, and the felt-sense of their experiences. Elissa's goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for her clients to explore parts of themselves that they are curious about. She uses an integrative approach, incorporating EMDR and other modalities such as sandtray, somatic practices, mindfulness, and expressive activities to help her clients integrate their mind and body. By learning to tell their stories, Elissa's clients are able to bear witness to their pain and uncover the gentle nudges within themselves. Elissa's approach is centered around helping her clients feel a newfound strength and comfort as they learn to show up and honor their stories.
