More about Elissa
- 17 years' experience

- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Colorado, I bring 17 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating affirming, compassionate spaces for clients navigating life's challenges, with specialized expertise in LGBTQ+ support, relationship dynamics, and personal growth.
I focus on helping individuals address depression, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and interpersonal challenges. My approach is deeply attuned to the unique experiences of women, LGBTQ+ communities, and individuals working through attachment issues, sexuality, and life transitions.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in exploring communication patterns, addressing guilt and shame, and developing healthier coping strategies. Whether you're processing body image concerns, exploring life purpose, or managing addiction recovery, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.
My therapeutic style emphasizes collaboration, respect, and honoring each person's individual journey. I believe in creating a non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and move toward meaningful personal transformation.

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.
