Ellen Goldstein LCSW

Ellen Goldstein LCSW Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist. WWW.ELLJOY.COM One-on-one counseling provides an opportunity to do one's most personal work.

Dedicated to working with clarity, heart and good humor, for the purpose of facilitating insight and positive life change with all of my clients. In the process, we can utilize a wide variety of approaches, including insight-oriented work, awareness and meditative practices, relaxation techniques and narrative patterns. In addition to standard psychotherapy, I also offer consulting, coaching, shor

t-term problem solving, check-in, tune-ups, and touch-ins. We can look together at all manner of concerns, including exploring relationships, purpose, work or personal goals, transpersonal, or spiritual issues. Together, we make a plan for addressing your needs, and it might look like one session from time to time, or a series of sessions for a short while. I do care deeply that each person discovers their unique path to deeper understanding, a better life. People come with varied concerns, but most often, they come with curiosity, to learn more about what makes them "tick," about how to care for themselves, how to be more effective in their professional lives or personal relationships and how to play. For some, there is a hunger to become more aware, and to create new possibility. Many seek the time to be with themselves, entering into a process of discovery that is not governed by complaint, but by the desire to bring greater contentment to their lives. For psychotherapy, I accept all the major insurance plans, including Preferred Care/MVP, Excellus (the Blues, Lifetime Health), Cigna, Aetna and Medicare. If you have a different carrier, feel free to ask me as I might be covered by them under a different umbrella. I am also on several EAP (Employee Assistance Plans) and you can ask your HR or EAP reps if I am on the panel for your company. For those outside of the insurance system please inquire about flat-rate fees.

We are not our fears but it helps to embrace them.

Beautiful work....

Soooo... if your photographer says, "come quick!" and wants to whisk you away for a second from your reception for a sunset photo, what would you say? I was so happy I had an enthusiastic "yes" from these two.

I'm sending this news about a comic Aubrey (my daughter in law) has published ("Medicine's Women Problem") because we're proud but also because it's important that we all remember that we must advocate for ourselves and never give up!

So, I was wondering why I was feeling tearful this morning, and then I remembered that I'm .retiring. No way to avoid ambivalence on this one. So grateful to all my extraordinary clients over these so many years.
