Hi! I’m Dr. Ellis, but you can call me Nikki.

It is no accident you landed here.

Do you look in the mirror and not recognize the person looking back? Maybe you’ve experienced trauma, transition such as marriage/divorce, loss, illness, empty nest, retirement, or meno/ andropause and can’t find your way back to you. There doesn’t have to be a reason for feeling disconnected, but now more than ever, this world needs your most authentic self and the gifts and talents only you possess. This is where I can help.

Over almost 20 years as a therapist, I have successfully helped countless clients through various life issues—trauma, transitions, addictions, emotional distress, you name it. But, nothing puts a fire in my soul more than seeing people fully embrace who they are. Yes, that means accepting your past, but more importantly thriving in spite of it!

YOU are a FIGHTER, a SURVIVOR, a WARRIOR, and an ALL AROUND BAD ASS!!!

YOU hold the light and spirit of the Divine WITHIN YOU!!!

You may feel uncertain of who you are right now, but together in a safe and comfortable space, we can do MAGIC!!! LET’S MOVE MOUNTAINS, BABY!!

Academically, I am a licensed counselor, counselor educator, and a clinical supervisor. But at my core, I am a nature lover (incorporating nature for growth and healing), energy worker (i.e., meditation, chakra balancing, reiki, jin shin jyutsu), creative (mixed media), and a shamanic practitioner (using the path of direct revelation to connect with spirit guides). With strong intention and a willingness to dig deep, you can gain understanding of who you are, heal yourself, and embrace your uniqueness with a full and grateful heart…

I’m proof!
