Elyse is a counselor based in Maine, offering integrative, trauma‑informed counseling that blends evidence‑based therapies with soulful, body‑centered practices. Her work is rooted in resilience, emotional clarity, and connection to the inner light that never wavers. Guided by compassion and grounded presence, she supports individuals and families as they navigate transitions, honor memory, and cultivate emotional wellness. She is currently in the early stages of launching her online private practice and collaborating on an emerging wellness app designed to help people capture real‑time emotional experiences and access grounding tools as they arise. Presenting on this early‑stage project offers a meaningful opportunity to connect with the counseling community and gather insight into how such a tool may be received and refined. Elyse is also the author of a children’s book series and several poetry collections. She lives by the ocean in Maine with her beautiful soul‑dog Destiny and her warrior cat princess, Katniss.
