Andrea Ellis, MA, LPC

From pain to perspective, loss to gain, fear to forgiveness, anxiety to peace. Whatever you are passing through right now, I am trained to come alongside you to offer insight, techniques and support to take those steps forward. Sometimes it means finding courage to close a gate from a present unhealthy situation or it could be opening one to gain understanding and healing from past trauma, abuse, or ongoing family of origin dynamics. I have enjoyed over 15 years of providing professional counseling to aid my clients in identifying the root causes of feeling unable to experience the changes they desire, and break free from the depression and anxiety that often accompany them. I specialize in identifying faulty coping and interpersonal dynamics that feed unhealthy patterns in your most valued relationships and marriages. Client ownership and collaboration in developing goals and the steps toward them is encouraged as the quickest route to lasting change and a renewed life. My belief is that there is one person who can ultimately bring truth and healing by inviting us through the narrow gate that leads to new life (Matthew 7:13-14) and His name is Jesus Christ. In following His example, I do not tell my clients what to believe or insist on my clients accepting biblical truth as a foundation for counseling. I am committed to discovering and respecting my clients’ belief system and will only use scripture as is comfortable to the individual client. Upon entering counseling should you choose to make an appointment, you will experience a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental environment to process your deepest concerns. I will consider it an honor to join you right there at the gateway to your new life.
