Andrea Ellena, MSW, LGSW
My specialties:
- Social work
Professional interests:
- Immediate access to mental health care
- Patients 18-64
- All mental health conditions
- Virtual or in person
Practice philosophy: I believe individuals have the capacity for growth, even in times of stress or uncertainty. I aim to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore challenges, gain insight, and move towards meaningful change. I view therapy as a collaborative process that helps individuals reconnect with their strengths and build a greater sense of clarity, resilience, and self-awareness.
