“I’m no good at this.” “I give up.” “This is too hard!” Do any of these statements sound familiar? Sometimes, being a human is hard work. I am here to help. I believe everything in life starts with our mindset and how we think about ourselves and the world around us. I am passionate about assisting children, adolescents, teens, and parents to explore both their strengths and vulnerabilities. While the foundation of my work is rooted in supporting and building confidence, growth mindset, and self-compassion; each client receives an individualized treatment plan that suites their own unique needs.
I have previous experience working with a Clinical Neuropsychologist assessing individuals for neurological, medical, or neurodevelopmental disorders. Through this experience, my perspective on well-being shifted from a medical-model to a wellness model, and supporting the whole person in the recovery process.
If you are interested in scheduling an appointment or would like more information, please feel free to send me an email directly, (elise@sunstonecounselors.com) and I will respond promptly.

Parenting can be especially challenging when your teen has difficulties regulating their emotions. This (virtual) group provides parents with tools to help their teens accept life circumstances while developing skills to enact positive changes in their behavior and interactions with others. Parents will learn how to address behavior through effective communication and enhanced understanding, in turn reducing power struggles and developing a more meaningful relationship with their teen.
