Ellen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of coping. She also offers talk therapy and practical coaching tools for workplace challenges and leadership concerns.

How CBT and Coaching Work Online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.Talk-based coaching focuses on skills and goals for work and leadership. That approach helps people set clear actions, practice new behaviors, and track progress between sessions. Both methods aim to give tools that can be used in everyday life.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Ellen will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She collaborates with each person to adjust techniques and try different strategies until something fits.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or when schedules call for shorter interactions.
These formats let people work therapy into busy routines, handle follow-up tasks between meetings, and maintain continuity when travel or work demands change.
