Getting to know Carolyn Ellis
Hi there!
I am Carolyn Ellis, a licensed mental health counselor in Central Florida with 20 years of professional experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Central Florida.
If you have ever felt overwhelmed, I am the therapist for you. Have you ever felt like life is just really tough and it is a struggle to manage everyday? Are you struggling with people, work problems, or just not feeling right? Maybe you feel like you are being pulled in a million directions? Therapy is just the thing you need.
My style is interactive and welcoming. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I do not believe in using stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I can help you. Something I think is important is to prioritize your mental health and to set up personal goals for success. That is what you can strive to achieve by participating in counseling. Let’s chat!
Please know that it takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life, as well as to take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Whether you're dealing with strong emotions, feeling overwhelmed, struggles with relationship issues, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow.
I am not sure if you have been in therapy before, but you can expect regular, weekly sessions with me where we can work on those concerns you mentioned. I encourage you to set up a meeting time on the calendar for this week where we can begin talking by videochat.
Let's work together!

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
