Dr. Ellen Chance
“Give yourself the same care and attention you give to others and watch yourself bloom”.
It is my mission as a counseling professional to empower women and mothers to prioritize their whole wellness. I have advanced training in perinatal/maternal mental health and serve women through all stages of pregnancy, motherhood, and life. I am passionate about supporting women in navigating the joys and challenges of motherhood and life. I work from the belief that all individuals deserve to feel whole: complete, fulfilled, grounded, and connected.
Utilizing integrative, evidence-based therapeutic approaches, I work with women towards achieving whole wellness. Rather than simply addressing a specific set of symptoms or presenting problems, I utilize a holistic approach that considers mental, physical, social, emotional, and spiritual factors influencing a client.
My woman-centered services address a broad range presenting challenges including: prenatal & postpartum experiences, birth trauma, pregnancy loss, grief and loss, anxiety & depression, self-esteem, codependency, parenting/co-parenting, relationship challenges, and stress & burnout.
It’s important to bring recognition to the fact that women’s issues go far beyond their identity as a mother. Are you a woman who has found themselves on autopilot… stuck in a routine of consistently giving to others while avoiding your unmet needs? You can feel whole again, and I am here to help.
I know it is hard to make time for yourself, and it may be daunting to seek help. If you’ve found yourself here, I’m reminding you…you deserve to be at the top of your to-do list!
I offer counseling in-person counseling (Palm City,FL) or counseling at your fingertips via secure, confidential teletherapy (serving all of Florida).
My clients are immediately met with compassion, warmth, empathy, and positive regard. Through an integrative counseling process we will work together to foster personal growth and whole wellness. Together, we will create the space and time for you to tap into your unique strengths, explore self-compassion, and prioritize your own wellness.
Through effective therapeutic approaches and practice, you will move from survival mode to feeling whole, balanced, and better equipped to navigate life’s challenges, stressors, and the many roles you fulfill.
