About Ellen Sheehy (She/Her)

I believe that each client has the ability and knowledge within themselves to create a fulfilling life – but you don’t have to figure it out alone. I approach therapy with the mindset that you are the expert of your own life and experiences, and customize my approach to each client’s needs. My work with my clients is free from judgement and criticism: instead, we will work together to figure out your path back to yourself. I specialize in working with individuals healing from trauma, depression, anxiety, and grief. While I take an eclectic approach, most of my work incorporates mindfulness-based CBT, psychodynamic, and somatic approaches. I come to my role as a therapist with person-centered, strengths-based, neurodiversity-affirming, and anti-oppression perspectives in mind.

See what our patients are saying about Ellen Sheehy

5/5 Stars! I'm so grateful to have found Ellen! When we first started our search for a therapist, I wasn't sure what to expect. But from the moment we met Ellen, I knew we were in good hands. She has been a game-changer for my granddaughter, Olivia, helping her navigate the ups and downs of life with confidence and resilience. Ellen has provided Olivia with invaluable tools and coping skills to manage life's challenges, and the positive impact has been nothing short of remarkable. Her kindness, empathy, and expertise have made all the difference, and I couldn't be more thankful. If you're looking for a therapist who truly cares and can make a meaningful difference, look no further than Ellen. She's a true gem, and I feel lucky to have her in our lives.
