A note from Elisha:
As a therapist, I believe that meaningful change begins with understanding the deeper layers of who we are. My work is grounded in a psychodynamic approach, which means I help clients explore how past experiences, early relationships, and unconscious patterns shape present-day thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
I strive to create a space that feels safe, collaborative, and thoughtfully curious, a place where you can speak freely, reflect honestly, and feel genuinely heard. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes or surface-level solutions. It is about uncovering the roots of recurring patterns, increasing self-awareness, and building insight that leads to lasting change.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and questions of identity and meaning. I also work with couples, including those preparing for marriage through premarital counseling, on communication, conflict, and building a strong shared foundation. Together, we will explore not only what is happening in your life, but why, and how your internal world influences the way you experience yourself and others.
My style is warm, engaged, and reflective. I value authenticity and believe the therapeutic relationship itself is a powerful catalyst for growth. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, strengthen your emotional resilience, and move toward a more fulfilling and integrated life.
Professional Development:
I am a licensed clinical social worker and clinical supervisor, licensed in both New York and New Jersey. I received my master's degree in social work from New York University, with an advanced certification in the Intensive Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program at the William Alanson White Institute, and I am trained in the Gottman Method for couples therapy.
