Our Services
Individual Therapy
Our providers use evidence based practices to meet you where you are and walk along side you to help foster your desired change and growth. Our providers are all licensed and trained in their approaches, covering therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) among others. Our providers have varied passions and training to meet the needs of Veterans, trauma survivors, Military and First Responders, victims of abuse.
Couples Counseling
Our couple’s counselors are well trained and compassionate for the sometimes complicated issues faced between couples. Our confidential and nonjudgmental perspective helps you and your partner feel welcomed and understood, both necessary for discussion of the sometimes difficult topics. Our counselors are also trained in Pre-Martial counseling techniques for those couples who are looking to grow and strengthen their relationship before the big day.
Animal Assisted Therapy
Animal Assisted Therapy adds the elements of playfulness, humor and lightness to the therapeutic process and can be helpful to clients of all ages. Recent research has found therapy dogs provide unconditional emotional support and companionship in session, facilitating social interactions and helping therapy clients embrace the process. Ellis Group Counseling has our very own therapy-dog-in-training, a sweet Bernedoodle named Sullivan. Emily Ellis offers sessions with and without Sullivan for adults and children both.
Play Therapy
Play Therapy values the power of play in allowing the child to express themself and communicate in session. The same way that adults use words, research has shown the therapeutic benefit in children communicating through their play. This gives therapists more insight to the child and allows more effective treatment planning and conceptualization. Providers at Ellis Group Counseling are specially trained and Registered Play Therapists ready to help you help your little ones as young as age 3.
Family Therapy
Ellis Group Counseling believes in treating the family as a system, understanding that when one member is struggling, others are affected. We offer Family Therapy sessions and Parent Consultations for our families that choose to process life changes and challenges together. These sessions may be scheduled separately or in conjunction with individual counseling sessions.
Group Therapy
Providers at Ellis Group Counseling are committed to helping our community’s mental health needs in various settings. Group counseling sessions are a great opportunity to process difficult topics with others experiencing similar symptoms, reminding you that you are not alone and providing you with a support system. These group sessions are not covered by insurance, but are offered at a lower price compared to individual counseling sessions. Stay tuned for ongoing groups or contact us if there is a group you would like to see offered.
