I am a dedicated social worker committed to helping individuals recognize their strengths and true resiliency. I strive to provide the tools and resources needed to navigate difficult times and to find positivity even in challenging situations. My work focuses deeply on supporting individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, and on helping them develop coping skills that strengthen their overall resilience. I look forward to building a strong, trusting relationship where individuals feel safe and comfortable bringing any concerns to our time together. Together, we will work toward meaningful solutions that create a hopeful and inspiring new beginning for anyone facing adversity. My primary goal is to offer support and empower every individual by the end of our work together. Each person I meet fuels my passion and dedication to the mental health field, and I remain committed to finding solutions and providing ongoing support for all.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)

Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT)

I'm a bilingual (Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, and young adults, along with the caregivers who support them. I believe therapy works best when caregivers are active partners, so collaboration is a big part of how I work. I use Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Alternatives for Families CBT (AF-CBT), Problematic Sexual Behavior TF-CBT (PSB TF-CBT), motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and play-based strategies to help young people process trauma, manage big emotions, and build healthier coping skills. My sessions are calm and supportive, while still engaging and age-appropriate. I work with children and teens experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and other emotional or behavioral challenges. I chose this work because I’m passionate about helping children and caregivers heal together and feel more confident moving forward.

This was an incredible first session for my son. He has a hard time sitting still and he definitely has a hard time connecting with certain people... We've had some difficulty finding the right match for him but today was great. Elise was amazing and so sweet and kind and patient and she just came with so many great tools and feedback and things that made him excited for future sessions. We are very excited for him to work with her and know that she will help him so much.
