Carmelle Ellison, LCSW

On the outside, it looks like you’re living the dream of success, but on the inside, you feel held back by your fears and anxieties about life and all of it's changes. Very few people know that internally, your mind is constantly racing and overthinking. Against all of your wise logic and the previous experiences that have gone well, your fear of worst-case scenarios, judgment, failure, and abandonment persists, and no amount of ‘mindset shift' seems to create long-lasting change or relief for you. Most of all, you feel frustrated and unable to enjoy the beautiful life that you’ve worked so hard to create. The art of relaxing feels so unfamiliar to your body. You're so tired of being tired and are now ready for lasting change. You've noticed how lonely it's been trying to manage life and heal all on your own. Great; that's where I come in. You can expect me to have your back and to be deeply committed to helping you be present in the life you’ve always wanted for yourself. Very few anxious high-achievers know that talk therapy cannot support the healing of their survival brain or the regulation of their nervous system. You need something different, and effective. As an EMDR Certified Therapist & Certified Integral & Enneagram Coach, I personally know what it takes to get past stuck places like your well-being depends on it. You can expect me to be warm, attentive, and direct. I offer online video and phone sessions. Just visit my website or text to schedule!

As a complex relational trauma expert, intersections of identity that we navigate as humans, are not ignored in our work together. Many new clients want to get past the stuck places in their personal lives, careers, and relationships. I help them arrive at a place of harmony and fulfillment by treading these challenging areas with them and helping them increase the skills and awareness needed to live more integrated lives.
