About me

Hi, I’m Elli. I am a therapist who is passionate about working with other highly sensitive people to help them achieve greater inner-peace and balance. It can feel like a challenge to experience the world so deeply, but it is possible to learn to embrace those qualities and use them as your superpower. You do not have to live a life where you are being depleted and exhausted by the world around you. I would love to help you tap into your gifts and embrace them on your healing journey.

My Experience

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C #22772). I received a Bachelor of Science in Family and Human Services from Towson University and a Masters of Social Work at the University of Maryland School of Social Work. I have experience working in an inpatient unit, outpatient mental health center, the public school system and private practice. I opened Cardinal Counseling Center in August 2021 to create a healing space for the deep feelers of the world.

My Approach

I believe in a holistic, client-centered approach to therapy, and consider the whole person including mind, body and spirit. I do not believe that therapy is ‘‘one size fits all'’ and I will pull from various theories and interventions based on your needs and goals.

My Clients

I work well with clients who are ready to dig deeper and explore their wants, needs, and desires on the path to achieve greater balance and joy. I look forward to the possibility of being a part of your journey.
