Getting to know Elliot Hewett

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience providing therapy to individuals navigating life's challenges. My approach is built on the foundation of empathy, collaboration, and respect, with a focus on creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients. I work with individuals and couples to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in ways that foster insight and healing. My approach As a therapist trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I offer a compassionate, structured, and emotionally attuned approach to healing. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, trauma, or relationship distress, my goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. In our work together, we'll explore how your thoughts and beliefs impact your emotions and behaviors (CBT), gently process and release unresolved trauma stored in the body and mind (EMDR), and build deeper, more secure connections in your relationships (EFT). I tailor each session to your needs—whether that means helping you find tools to manage anxiety, guiding you through past painful memories, or working through patterns in your relationships. My focus I specialize in working with individuals who’ve experienced trauma (including childhood abuse or neglect), people navigating anxiety or panic, and couples struggling with connection, trust, or communication. Many of my clients are deeply thoughtful and motivated to heal, but they need a skilled guide to help them make sense of what’s happening inside and between them. Using EMDR, I help clients process painful or traumatic experiences that are still impacting their daily life. With CBT, we work on untangling unhelpful thought patterns and building practical tools to manage emotions. For couples and attachment-related struggles, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help partners move from disconnection to closeness.
