Getting to know Ellen Thistle

Hello, I'm Ellen. Life can be hard, especially when you feel like you're doing it alone. Sometimes, other people help us make the changes we need to be happy. That is what I'm here to help you do. In a judgment-free and confidential setting, let's explore the factors contributing to your current functioning. Through working together, you will develop tools to help you make the necessary changes to achieve a happier life. I graduated with a master's degree in social work in 2014 from Barry University. After completing over 4,000 hours of individual therapy with children, teens, and adults facing myriad issues including depression, trauma, anxiety, and addiction, I received my LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) designation in 2017. Since then, I have worked in both school and outpatient settings. My practice is grounded in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach, and I have received specialized training in trauma recovery, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and adolescent mental health. I have also received training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am open to working with all people no matter their 'presenting problem.' Confidentiality and emotional safety are the foundations I build upon to create a trusting relationship with my clients. I believe in a collaborative approach, where you and I work in tandem to determine how to best fulfill your needs. Everyone is different; for this reason, I develop a personalized treatment approach for each client to create the best outcome possible. If you're ready to take the next step towards a happier life, I am here to support you every step of the way. Let's work together to find the path that best suits you.
