Getting to know Elysia Russell
I am a licensed therapist with Empower Psychotherapy dedicated to supporting individuals and couples who are ready for meaningful change. Licensed to serve clients in Arizona, Texas, Utah, Maryland, Colorado and New Mexico, I provide specialized telehealth therapy focused on couples therapy online, ADHD, and trauma recovery. I utilize evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, to help my clients move through the obstacles keeping them stuck. Whether you are seeking an online therapist for specialized trauma support or a telehealth psychologist perspective on complex relationship dynamics, I offer a structured space to build a more grounded sense of self.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When you work with me, you will find a therapeutic style that is direct, collaborative, and focused on clear goal-setting so that our time together feels purposeful. My approach to mental health telehealth is designed for those who feel overwhelmed or disconnected and are looking to clarify their goals and address underlying patterns. In our online therapy sessions, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where we can slow things down and create lasting change. As a telehealth therapist near me for residents in Arizona and New Mexico, I aim to make telehealth for behavioral health a practical and effective experience for reclaiming your well-being.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process begins with a client-centered focus, where we work together to identify practical strategies for the challenges you face today. During our telehealth psychotherapy sessions, I integrate specialized modalities such as EMDR and mindfulness to address anxiety, depression, and the impact of past experiences. A typical session of telehealth counseling is direct but compassionate, ensuring we are always working toward the specific outcomes you desire. Through these telehealth therapy services, I help you navigate ADHD-related struggles and painful relationship patterns, providing you with the tools to translate our work into a healthier, more balanced life.
