Ellen Larabee, MA, LPCC
Owner and Counselor
My therapy style is empathetic, insightful, reflective, humorous and goal-affirming. I have always had a "quirky" sense of humor and I love that I can bring that into session with me. Sometimes being able to laugh or to see the absurdity of life shakes loose the obstacles and anxiety. I use elements from mindfulness, family systems and clinical hypnotherapy. My initial goal is to connect with you and your experiences in your world, ask questions, provide feedback, and use interventions to rebuild and reinforce your sense of self and your place in the universe.

Carrie Miller, MA, LPC
Counselor
My therapy style is intuitive, compassionate, understanding, reassuring, and holistic. I am honored to assist my clients during times of uncertainty and find great joy in watching them overcome obstacles. I strive to teach skills such as self-compassion, mindfulness, and acceptance. I love being a counselor because I believe in the resilience of the human heart, and I find it to be a privilege to walk along side of others while they heal and find their own way.

Grace Shade, MA, LPCC
Counselor
My therapy style is attentive, insightful, understanding, warm and empathetic. "I received a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling at Winebrenner Theological Seminary. I use a range of techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. Clients I see are experiencing difficult life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and relationship difficulties. I love being a therapist because I am able to help support individuals on their journey toward their own life goals."
