“Not a day goes by that I don’t notice and appreciate my increasing sense of confidence and well-being; and feel deeply grateful to you for helping me stabilize and heal. Working with you has made an enormous impact on me; and I feel the positive changes and carry the benefits of it with me each day. Words can’t adequately express my heartfelt gratitude to you for all you’ve given… guiding and teaching and supporting me.”
– M., Boulder, CO

I have been in a lot of psychotherapy in my lifetime and am a retired therapist myself, so I’m pretty picky about whom I select to work with. Elly is the most nonjudgmental therapist I have ever worked with. Her dedication to a non-dual meditative practice in her own life infuses her approach, freeing and empowering me as a client to explore myself unencumbered by such traditional obstacles as transference or projections onto the therapist. Elly is well-versed, skillful, and intuitive; she employs methods that go beyond the chit-chat level of counseling, enabling me to do the depth work that I find to be truly healing. Her group classes also encourage growth, insight, and opening to new ways of being…. I would like to go to a Spacious Presence meeting for the rest of my life!

“Elinor is a gem! The techniques she used led to resolution of my old issues, so that now I am ‘free’ of them… I feel I can trust Elinor completely. Like passing clouds, I’m learning that the difficult feelings come and go, and that I’m actually much larger than my passing emotions. My anxiety is eased and I can now make different choices. I would underscore that Elinor cares deeply about her clients. That more than anything, she created a safe, nurturing environment where I could learn how to care deeply about myself.”

“Elinor is a truly caring person. I could go wherever I needed to with her and feel totally safe. EMDR was terrific….Finding that trauma held in my body that I didn’t even know existed and being able to release it. I now am “free” of old issues and am not carrying them into present interactions. I can experience people without attaching old “roles’ to them that were based on other people from my past unresolved issues. I feel much more free and am generally happier and more confident.”

“I came to see Elly because I’m a professional public speaker and began having intense panic attacks while speaking, which was potentially significantly damaging to my career. After several sessions of working with Elly, I am back in the flow of my public speaking, with nary a panic attack on the horizon. I deeply appreciate her help with this.”
