so glad you are here.

Whether you are coping with heavy emotions or facing challenging circumstances brought about by pregnancy, new parenthood, illness, caregiving, or the death of a loved one, you don't have to do so alone. You may feel overwhelmed, unsure who you are right now, or uncertain how to keep moving forward.

Therapy offers a soft place to land during difficult times: a space to pause, take a breath, and begin to make sense of what feels tangled. Over time, many people find that they feel more grounded, more connected to themselves and others, and more able to navigate whatever may be unfolding with steadiness and self-trust.

hello, i’m ellen (she/her).

Ellen Mail - postpartum therapist - therapist for depression anxiety - grief therapist

I am a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker serving clients in Massachusetts and Indiana. My training as a social worker fundamentally informs how I approach working with clients, whose lived experience serves as their expertise, informing how they relate to self and others and how they move through the world.

I approach my clinical work as an opportunity to accompany each client on their journey to the home within: a place of inner peace and sanctuary, calm and happiness. I enjoy providing therapy to adults who are motivated to experience how self-discovery and improved coping help cultivate an inner landscape marked by vibrancy and contentment.

My practice is rooted in compassion and collaboration. Clients often describe me as calm, steady, and deeply attuned. I take time to listen, reflect, and understand, working at a client-lead pace.
