Elliott Donaldson, LCSW (they/them)
As a queer trans person, I am passionate about LGBTQIA individuals receiving affirming therapy that empowers them to find a community who will support and celebrate all aspects of their identities. I specialize in working with neurodivergent clients. I'm polyamory and kink positive.
I use an eclectic, trauma-informed approach to therapy. I draw from a variety of approaches including Internal Family Systems (IFS) (Level 1 trained), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). My work with clients often explores attachment styles, somatic work, and mindfulness.
I believe therapy is a collaborative process. I work with each of my clients to explore their needs and determine a plan for therapy. If you have any questions about my approach or want to see if we'd work well together, feel free to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can talk.
Appointments available Monday - Wednesday between 8:45 am and 5 pm.
