About me

I am licensed in the state of Montana to do mental health counseling and therapy, as well as a Certified Coach. I’ve been self-employed for over 30 years and have a wide range of experience. I particularly work with persons who experience anxiety, stress and depression - often as a result of family problems and frequently work issues! I’ve also worked with all branches of the military working with troops and family both in the USA and abroad.

My style of counseling tends to be more direct than passive. I believe in warmth, compassion and listening along with guidance and direction offered. I do not give advise; I am your mirror and help you see what you most want and need. Therapy is an individual journey, so the path we carve together is unique in it’s terrain, speed and outcome.

I look forward to meeting each client with an open mind and heart. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Ellen has been one of My favorite counselors so far. The first day talking with her, she helped me out with some of my concerns and struggles, and was not afraid to Let me know What I need to work on And where I need to stand my ground, and I love the honest talk.

Mrs. Savage is very kind. Has been helping me work out somethings that have weighed me down for many years.

Ellen is really wonderful, she's my favourite therapist to date (I've had many, haha). She asks good questions and challenges me to look deeper when it might not be the comfortable thing to do. She's open minded and kind, it's easy to talk to her. I have been seeing her for a while and my partner thinks I've become more confident, self aware and less anxious. Highly recommend! Thank you Ellen
