Getting to know Ellen Pierce

Ellen Irene Pierce helps patients build stability, insight, and practical coping skills as they navigate life's emotional and relational challenges. Serving individuals and families across Georgia, she creates a supportive therapeutic environment where teens, adults, and seniors feel heard and empowered. Through individual, couples, and family therapy, Ellen addresses concerns such as anxiety, ADHD, and depression, offering structured guidance that promotes meaningful, lasting change. She is especially passionate about supporting individuals who have been recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital.

Her approach blends accountability with compassion, helping patients regain confidence and re-establish balance in their lives. In addition to this focus, Ellen works with couples navigating conflict and disconnection, adolescents experiencing school avoidance, and women managing complex life stressors. She also has experience supporting individuals and families connected to the adoption and foster care system. Her clinical work integrates evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Couples/Marital Counseling, and Family Therapy, while drawing from additional therapeutic modalities to meet each patient's needs. Ellen has been practicing since 2010 and brings extensive experience from outpatient, managed care, and residential treatment settings. She is known for her thoughtful presence, clinical insight, and commitment to personalized care. Outside of her professional life, she enjoys reading as a way to relax and continue learning. Ellen Irene Pierce provides therapy services throughout Georgia at LifeStance Health.
