Greetings! My name is LaKendria Ellis and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who cares. I obtained my Masters in Clinical and Mental Health Counseling in 2017 and acquired a wide variety of experience in my time as a clinician and through my own journey of healing. I hope to help clients become the best versions of themselves by practicing authenticity! I am my clients "biggest cheerleader" and "advocate". I help individuals heal while working through life transitions. Let me help you.
I came to counseling after having already completed a successful career and was looking for something different. I completed graduate school in Texas and have since become licensed in both Texas and Colorado. The majority of my work is in general counseling and I also work with couples and families. I have worked for University of Texas schools as well as for the University of Alabama. While working in the UT system schools I helped with veterans issues and transition to civilian life. During Covid I provided counseling for military families and first responders.
The first step toward change is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are. I applaud you for taking that step! I would be honored to create a collaborative space to explore the barriers that may be keeping you from where and who you want to be. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and owner of Do The Work Counseling Services, PLLC.
I’m a licensed therapist with 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and build fulfilling lives.
I earned my degree from Columbia University. I specialize in treating depression and anxiety, working collaboratively with my clients to understand their unique experiences and develop practical strategies for growth and healing.
