Getting to know Chenelle Ellie

My name is Chenelle and I am a black therapist who specializes in relationship anxiety counseling in Bel Air, MD. I help the people pleasers and worriers of the world identify the negative self-talk that drives their anxiety. Together, we create goals according to your desires and what makes you happy. We will explore how to let go of the expectations of your parents, society, and the standards often imitated on social media, and start focusing on what YOU want and how to create a life you’ve always dreamed of. I pay close attention to the words that my clients use in order to dig deeper and identify the underlying fears that fuel their anxiety. My clients meet with me weekly. This provides the fastest and most effective way to build a relationship with one another. Once we are able to fully get to know one another and build rapport, we can dive deeper into the healing phase of therapy. This could take months or years. It depends on the person, the symptoms, and their experiences. Therapy is designed to address painful experiences, but I also try to create an environment where laughter and sarcasm are also welcome as well. The goal is for the client to practice displaying their authentic self in the therapy session so that they will feel more comfortable introducing that new and improved person to their family and friends. In case you are interested in my academic and professional background, here it is! I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work from Bowie State University and I graduated from the University of Maryland Baltimore with my Master’s in Social Work. I have clinical licenses in Maryland, Virginia, and D.C which allows me the privilege of providing online counseling to those who reside in those states. I also have a telehealth certificate for Florida to provide online counseling to clients in Florida. I have also trained with Kelly McDaniels in order to provide Mother Hunger Support Groups.
