She was excellent. She listened and she was also engaged with what I had to say.

I've been seeing Ela for two years to work through GENERALIZED ANXIETY DISORDER, MAJ DEPRESS D/O RECURRENT MOD, POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS D/O CHRONIC, and OTH PROBLEMS RELATED TO PSYCHOSOCIAL CIRCUMSTANCESPTSD. I appreciate how Ela creates a safe, non-judgmental space for me to open up. She is always patient and understanding, making it easier for me to tackle difficult topics. Thanks to Ela's guidance, I've gained new tools to understanding where my anxiety comes from and feeling much more confident in handling stressful situations. She is awesome at identifying patterns and connections within my traumatic memories. My sessions with Ela showed me how much of an impact our work together has had. I highly recommend Ela to anyone looking for support. Her compassionate approach and expertise have truly made a difference in my life.
