Hi, I’m Elliott

Hearthside Healing is my coaching and therapeutic practice located in Helsinki, Finland. I specialize in working with neurodivergent (ADHD, ASD, and AuDHD) and LGBTQ+ adults, with a primary focus on transgender and gender-diverse individuals. My therapeutic style is based in affirmation of your whole person; I am here to support your process of self-discovery, self-love, and self-actualization. If this sounds like the kind of therapy you’re looking for, you can instantly book a free 30-minute consultation!

I am an immigrant from the United States, where I also work in mental healthcare via telehealth at a group practice. Click here to learn more about that work, my dedication to ethical supervision, and my training and professional background. I am both Neurodivergent and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community.

  • Navigating a world not built for us is hard. With skills based coaching, I can help support your process of building accessibility into your daily life by helping you to understand, and embrace, your strengths and limitations

  • “Where do you feel that in your body?” is a question I ask clients a lot. I believe our bodies carry our stories; present, past, and future. And through body-based therapeutic modalities, I can support your discovering these stories by repairing and building the relationship you have with your body. These modalities include: Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, Gestalt Theory, and Existential Theory.

  • As an immigrant mental healthcare worker I know how hard it can be to do this work here separated from our licensing and professional organizations in our countries of origin; in professional community with the locally based organization Psychological Practitioners Finland (PPF)
