Getting to know Elana Dunn
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about how I may be able to help you. Call me "Elana," please. Through experience, I have been able to help individuals overcome the overwhelm of "life" stressors, anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, and move forward to a MUCH better "place" in life. My style is very natural, conversational, engaging, attentive, and warm (according to what past clients have said). I combine several techniques to create a very solution-based approach. Using my counseling style and experience, I want to get you to the point of thriving (not just surviving).
I earned my MEd in Counseling and Development from Montana State University–Northern. I started working in the mental health field in 1997. Since that time, I have held various roles as a psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, manager, and agency director. Decades in at this point, and I still love being a part of people changing their lives for the better.
Life can bring challenges that at times feel like just too much to sort through or overcome on your own. It brings great fulfillment to me to be a part of helping you move beyond pain—beyond overwhelming stress—beyond not knowing—beyond feeling confused. Walking WITH you through the tunnel, all the way to the other side, I learned long ago that helping people "change" is what I was called to do. I am humbled to be able to help you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients over the years have described me as "you keep it real," warm, honest, trustworthy, genuine, transparent, humorous, a teacher, and able to quickly move them forward. I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, and aunt. I look forward to working alongside you as you change and grow. I’ve learned that the real change happens in between each session, so I enjoy teaching skills and strategies for you to practice; building upon your successes to reach your goal.

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.
