You are making the first step toward living your best life. It is possible for you to experience recovery, healing and your optimal wellness. Traumatic experiences and difficult ‘life changes’, may cause you to feel out of control or helpless. Be assured, there is hope!

I am here to help my clients gain a new perspective, heal from past traumatic experiences, grow and learn new coping strategies. If you would like someone to listen, offer guidance, new communication techniques, relaxation breathing, couples or marriage therapy, please schedule a session with me. Having a third party, professional, someone not emotionally connected to the situation, is a real game changer.

I have a passion for working with young children and their caregivers, & teens and adults working through trauma, stress and generational cycles of abuse and neglect. I am also skilled and passionate about working with First Responder families (Police/Fire/EMS) who are often left unsupported as they manage trauma and occupational stress which affects all members of their families. My clients come to therapy to reflect on their lives and make connections between past experiences and present reactions. If you are seeking an approach that is nervous system informed, neurodiversity affirming, and nonjudgmental, I may be the right fit!

***All clients are remote.*** Anxiety and depression affect so many of us every day. Spiraling thoughts, racing heartbeat, inability to sleep, feeling withdrawn at social events--these are just a few examples of how our anxiety gets in the way of our enjoyment and ability to live our lives. Anxiety and depression also increase our stress level and may prevent us from having healthy interactions with coworkers, friends, family members. Think of it this way: if our mind has us focused on the past or the future, how can we enjoy our present relationships??

Hello! I am Dr. Ellen Adelman, a licensed clinical psychologist. Effective treatment means looking at issues of the whole person: Mind, Body and Spirit. I often see people with their families or partners to help understand and resolve relationship issues and to improve communication skills. In individual sessions, a process of gentle exploration helps us address anxiety, depression, anger, and issues of self-esteem. We will determine the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of the problems you face. Together we can identify the areas where you need help and develop strategies to deal with them in a safe and healing environment.

Through my experience working with various populations, all going through some of life’s greatest pains, I aim to provide a safe space for my clients. A safe space where they can explore the complexities of their pasts, the melting pot of their emotions, and the truths of their realities. By utilizing mediation and grounding techniques, we uncover what the authentic self means to each individual and journey towards achieving that in daily life.

We are a virtual practice dedicated to maternal wellness, serving the needs of pregnant and postpartum women and their families for almost 40 years. Our team is comprised of highly skilled therapists who are social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists and have received advanced training in the treatment of prenatal and postpartum depression and anxiety. Our practice is not limited to this area of specialty as we provide general counseling for adolescents, adults and couples.

You don't have to suffer alone. There is help. We can work together so that you experience a more fulfilled life. I work with clients on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, spiritual issues, and loss and grief. I can also help clients struggling with trauma, ADHD, and sleep difficulties. Primarily I use a psychodynamic perspective, appreciating the underlying causes to the difficulties we face. I also integrate techniques from other approaches, such as gestalt, emotion-focused therapy, short-term psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy, depending on the client's unique problems and goals.

With 24 years of experience as a practicing clinical psychologist, I use a combination of psychodynamic, relational and cognitive behavioral strategies to increase self-awareness and insight, and to develop and strengthen coping strategies and problem solving skills among my adolescent and adult clients. Utilizing a methodologically integrated approach, my aim is to help clients identify, understand and overcome obstacles to well-being and success in the domains of relationships, family, work and school.

How can I help you? Whatever the obstacles are that stand in the way of your happiness, success, or satisfaction, I would like to help you overcome them. I am compassionate, understanding, smart and insightful. I have over twenty years of experience, education and specialized training. In my opinion, change comes from gaining insight into and understanding about oneself. My treatment orientation is psychodynamic but I incorporate other treatment modalities as well, such as cognitive and behavioral therapies. I see individuals, couples, adolescents and children. I look forward to the opportunity to help you.

We all have untapped resilience. Adversity can be a gift. As a therapist my goal is to help you live your life with better relationships, increased agency and more joy. Change is possible at any stage of life. We are all life-long learners, and we can begin to change when we feel understood. During the pandemic, I shifted my practice to a secure online platform. I was pleasantly surprised at the intimacy of that format. But nothing can replace meeting face-to-face, and so I work now both remote and in-person. Either way, three years after the initial crisis, still I wonder: Who doesn't feel the need for more human contact?

Coming from a diverse and experienced background, my qualifications and training in various disciplines have helped me to expand on an innate ability to cater to a client’s individual needs and potential. I do not believe “one size fits all” which means that each client is given services unique to them and the intricacies of their life, their experiences. This approach is coupled with an individual professional style and conscientious quality of service. I run a “gold standard” practice with a personal belief of “people before profits”. Quite simply, I care about people and help people to care about themselves.

I offer a compassionate, educational approach; a partnership with my clients, who want to be their very best self. Counseling, therapy, or coaching with Triune Wellness Founder Dr. Sherri Edelman: will lead to internal and external shifts, in relationship to yourself and others; resulting in greater satisfaction and abundance in all areas of your life. Obstacles are identified and removed, and strategies and tools are developed; that are easy to understand and apply. With a dynamic, collaborative, and results-driven orientation; our work together will facilitate the release of old patterns and habits, for a brand new focus on life!

She works diligently with her clients to establish a strong therapeutic alliance with all members of the family, collaborating with them to develop new coping strategies and create positive changes in mood and behavior.

At times you may feel too depleted to consider making needed changes in your life, or to know what is even possible to change. Old coping mechanisms no longer work so well, bringing diminishing returns and unhappiness. It may take a crisis to be ready to seek help. Psychotherapy can reveal ways of replacing the behavior patterns and symptoms that cause us trouble with real solutions. Using the insights of existential and psychodynamic perspectives of psychology - including dream work - as a basis, I will help you understand yourself, care for yourself, and discover strength and meaning wherever you may find yourself in your life.
