Hey, I’m Ella.
I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Mason, Ohio. My mission is to plant seeds in others that will foster personal growth in order to achieve optimal wellness and success.
My Approach
Collaborative
YOU are the expert on YOURSELF. Treatment is collaborative because you will be in charge of your goals while I provide interventions and support along the way. In order to assist you in achieving your personal goals, I will employee an eclectic-mix of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-informed care, psychodynamic, existential and play therapy.
Playful
Children, teenagers, adults, seniors… we all need to play! I meet you at whatever stage of life you are in and bring forth elements of humor, relatability and fun. I aim to deliver interventions that feel less like homework and more like psychological mining. Digging in can be uncomfortable but there is gold to be found within you.
Compassionate
As someone really smart and cool (Theodore Roosevelt) once said, “No one cares about how much you know until they know how much you care”. As my client, I want you to feel that sentiment deeply during our time together. The therapeutic relationship is built on trust and connectivity. It is the most powerful healing aspect of treatment and allows for empirically-based interventions to truly take root.
Therapy Services
Individual Therapy
These one-on-one sessions are completely focused on your specific needs in the here-and-now. Individual therapy is what you might typically think of when you hear “talk therapy” or “psychotherapy”. During individual therapy, we will pick apart presenting issues while utilizing your intrinsic strengths to propel you to where you want to be. This is your time that is 100% dedicated to you.
Play Therapy
Children speak a different language than adults - and that is through play. Play therapy allows for children to express emotional and developmental concerns in a more approachable and applicable manner. During play therapy, I allow children to use figurines, sand trays, drawings and games in order to explore their motives for behaviors and how they may view their world, relationships and self-concept.
Family Therapy
Familial dynamics and sub-structures lay the foundation for our future relationships. Family therapy allows for us to take a closer look at how we interact with one another plays into possible dysfunction. Clarification, communication and reconstruction of interrelation with one another is imperative to each individual’s growth.
