I believe it is my responsibility as a clinician to help you take ownership of your own life, embrace who you truly are, and discover your meaning in life. In order to do this, I believe in trusting your inner guidance on what it is that you need from therapy, even if you do not yet trust yourself. Whether you are seeking to understand or change your own thoughts and behaviors, your grief, or how you are coping with life in general, I believe that by committing yourself towards progress, you have already taken a step towards owning your own life. Let's run with it.
I will work mostly from an Existential perspective, in combination with a Multicultural lens. I will build a strong alliance with you first, then help you take charge of your own progress. I will be welcoming and curious about all aspects of who you are.
I am an authentic, compassionate, and expressive clinician. My role in the therapeutic space is to be a "fellow traveler," or a collaborator with you. I will be real with you. I will be direct. But most of all, I will be understanding, and I will work at your own pace. Please feel free to reach out for a consultation call to determine the goodness of fit!

Ely is a gift to the Spanish-speaking community. I am confident clients will be taken care of, understood, validated, and that they would feel represented in the therapy room. Her ability to navigate trauma in the therapy room is also highly applauded.
