Hi, I’m Elissa. I’m glad you’re here. 

I believe that once we learn to see things differently, we can’t help but do things differently. 

As a Clinician, Coach, and Consultant, I help individuals and organizations see themselves and their situation more clearly so that they can use their strengths to transform. 

I created Alchemy Therapy, Coaching, and Consulting to bring together my work as a therapist, coach, and consultant. My focus is on helping people build resilience, find clarity, and create meaningful change—whether that’s in their personal lives, workplaces, or communities.

I love doing deep work and bringing deep and whole-self listening to thoroughly understand your situation.

Even seemingly simple challenges often have many parts, so I draw on a range of modalities, approaches, and experiences to synthesize the disparate pieces of information into a cohesive understanding from which we can chart a path forward. I’m known for blending humor and playfulness with depth and gravity and balancing inquiry with pragmatism.  

If you’re looking for a fresh perspective for your healing journey, help with a “people problem” at work, coaching for crafting your best life, or a dynamic speaker for your next gathering, these are all very much in my wheelhouse. 

I look forward to hearing from you.

“Elissa's superpower is being both super bright and also relational and creative... she's among the smartest and wisest people I know".

DYNAMIC PUBLIC SPEAKING

Putting together a conference?  Hosting a podcast? Organizing an off-site? 

Let’s chat about creating an engaging experience for your participants to learn, reflect, and grow.  I’ve presented to more than 100 groups on topics such as leadership, confidence, resilience, wellness, mental health, emotional intelligence, and more! 

Let’s see what we can create together.

TRANSFORMATIVE COACHING

You know life could be different, but you’re not quite sure how to make it happen… 

Or maybe you’ve got a specific challenge that you're facing that has you feeling stuck or unsure. Whatever it is, you don’t have to be in it alone — get someone on your team!

Through transformative coaching, alchemize your challenges to help you see yourself in new ways, discover untapped strengths, and unify your actions with your vision.

EMDR THERAPY INTENSIVES 

You’ve been doing therapy for a while and understand your patterns, but find yourself continuing the same behaviors…

…Or you know therapy would be helpful, but it’s hard to make it happen every week? Break out of the “weekly therapy” routine and dive in with a therapeutic intensive.  

These immersive experiences offer an opportunity to focus on your progress without the interruptions of the day-to-day so you can move forward. EMDR therapy has been shown to be highly effective at helping reduce distress and change behaviors.
