We provide trauma-informed care, Christian counseling, addiction counseling, social skills groups, and support for life’s challenges. Services Provided:
Individual Therapy- If you are experiencing feelings of depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, anger, loneliness, grief, or if you are dealing with physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, the counselors at Ellis Counseling are here to help. We accept many different insurance policies and are currently accepting new clients. Couples therapy- The core of our relational counseling is helping couples develop a deeper connection. Conflict in relationships is simply growth trying to happen. Divorce, separation, and custody are also three stressful situations. At Ellis Counseling we have experience working with adults and children who have or are experiencing the stressors related to divorce and separation. It would be our pleasure to help during these stressful times. Children and Adolescent therapy- We work with children and adolescents, including those from foster care and adoptive backgrounds, as well as children and adolescents with problematic behaviors and self-esteem issues. Often teens are suffering from dealing with grief or sexual abuse. We have experience in these areas and often use play therapy, applied behavior analysis and cognitive behavioral therapy and brain spotting as approaches to resolving the issues. Perinatal Mental Health Counseling- 1 in 7 parents will experience severe mood changes and disruptions after birth. Perinatal mental health counseling is focused on alleviating and coping with the stressors associated with childbearing. Including the issues associated with miscarriage, infertility, birth trauma and childbirth. The utilization of evidence based on counseling techniques are proven to positively impact the lives of those involved. Brainspotting- Brainspotting is a powerful, focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing, and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation, and a variety of other challenging symptoms. BSP makes use of the natural phenomenon of where you look affects how you feel through its use of relevant eye positions. Together the therapist and client pair a fixed eye position and body sensation to an unresolved issue. This rapid, highly affective mind/body centered therapy technique appears to go beyond the cognitive awareness and connects one tohis/her body's innate wisdom to heal itself. Substance Abuse Counseling- We have an addiction specialist credentialed to provide the ASAM assessment and addiction counseling. Often treatment centers require an ASAM for admission and we are able to offer the assessment and appropriate referral. Trauma Focused Counseling- Trauma affects many people and they struggle alone to have a healthy life and relationships. Years of scientific research have manifested counseling techniques that show promising results to alleviate the effects of trauma. We have many theoretical approaches we use to help clients function better and integrate their trauma positively into their life. Christian Counseling- We have counselors on staff that are able to address issues of Christian faith such as: cognitive dissonance, self loathing and losing faith. Using principles of Christian faith with biblical fidelity and a Christian worldview can aid clients in resolving their issues through faith.
