Getting to know Raven Ellis

Raven Ellis brings 20 years of clinical experience, specializing in supporting women and adolescents, with a focus on serving BIPOC communities. Her trauma-informed approach integrates psychoeducation, emotional regulation techniques, and strategies to restore agency and autonomy. She draws from Existential Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing to support meaningful change. Based on lived and professional, I recognize the profound impact of discrimination and oppression on mental health and honor each client's unique identity and lived experiences. Raven has extensive experience working with clients navigating depression, trauma, anxiety, life transition, grief, and addiction/substance use. She is committed to creating a collaborative and supportive environment where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. Her goal is to help individuals build confidence, deepen self-awareness, and develop the skills and resources needed to manage distressing symptoms effectively.

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.
