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.

Let’s set something up

Individual Therapy

If you’ve been feeling hopeless or lost lately, or struggling with a problem in your life that feels unsurmountable, individual therapy could help you improve your everyday life. Individual therapy helps you win against whatever you’re battling by putting a real expert in your corner.

Telehealth

Telehealth is a private and convenient way we can meet online, where I provide counseling and therapy via live video conferencing. This can be done anywhere you have a computer or smartphone. Telehealth appointments offer scheduling flexibility and can be very beneficial.
