Creativity, Authenticity, Humor, Compassion, Acceptance, Determination…Ellie’s founding principles have created a culture that fosters a relaxed, encouraging environment where practitioners and clients feel free to be themselves. Through this culture, we are confident we will serve our community, especially disenfranchised populations which include the LGBTQ+ community, those who are transitioning faiths, as well as those who practice non-traditional relationship frameworks. Additionally, we want to provide a safe, judgement-free zone for our military and first responders, who may shy away from mental health services because of the negative stigma associated with seeking help.Ellie’s model affords practitioners a robust work-life balance, which means they can better focus on their craft and provide the very best to their clients. Our goal is to cultivate and provide a safe place for people to get the help they need, when they need it, from the best providers. Ellie helps make this a reality.As a retired Air Force veteran of 21 years, I've experienced my share of personal and professional challenges, to include traumatic events. It was easy to find a friend to share in the highs and lows of a military career but going to a professional mental health provider for deeper conversations was not the "norm". There was an unspoken knowledge that going to "mental health" could be a career killer, if not at the very least, a speed bump, that nobody wanted to deal with. Whether this was true or not, it was perceived. As the years passed and I gained in rank and experience, I learned that a transition was occurring. Mental health was becoming more important in the eyes of the Service, in fact, it was being encouraged. I want to be a part of the movement that further supports the message that seeking help is okay, and the right thing to do. I want to eliminate the stigma that, in years past, came with asking for help.
