My Offerings
Elena White Psychotherapy
Therapy is a unique, one-of-a-kind relationship with another person who is trained to listen in a very particular way, in order to identify long-held beliefs, patterns, and assumptions that may not be obvious to you.
As a therapist, I am here to listen in that very particular way, while providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental presence. I can help you hear and identify stories, patterns, behaviors, and automatic ways of thinking that no longer serve you, or are causing you to feel hopeless or that nothing will change. I provide an authentic, safe therapeutic experience, and will help you learn new ways of handling difficult situations, in order to identify your path towards healing, growth, and happiness.
Therapy can help tackle the difficulties of:
feelings of inexplicable sadness, grief, or despair
anxiety and panic
estrangement from family
apathy
feeling as if you are “too much” or “not enough”
difficulty maintaining fulfilling relationships or friendships
fear and grief connected to aging or loss
Learning self-confidence, self-acceptance, and freedom from judgement can be daunting, and I am committed to helping clients reach their goals. I want to understand clients in their own contexts and cultures, and I believe that healing is our right.
I can offer support treating:
Depression
Anxiety
Family Conflict & Family Estrangement
Adjustment Disorder
Codependency
Life Transitions
Panic Disorder
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Self-Esteem
Stress
Perimenopause | Menopause
Divorce
Sometimes the path can be dark or deep, or feel insurmountable. You do not need to walk it alone.
Overcome life’s challenges
Counseling for Anxiety
When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – it’s not only focusing on the symptoms, it treats the root cause.
Therapy for Depression
I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help you. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options and strategies available to once again have hope for their lives.
Coping with PTSD
Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health challenge that may occur after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a terrorist act, an act of war, a serious accident, rape, or any other violent personal assault.
Enhancing Self-Esteem
Self-esteem is a concept that speaks to how we feel about ourselves. When an individual has high self-esteem, they feel confident, centered, and worthy of love. People with low self-esteem may face shame and self-doubt. Learn to love yourself and thrive.
