About Elle Garfield
I am a psychotherapist, addictions counselor and group therapist with over twelve years counseling experience. I also teach Hatha yoga and Life Force yoga to individuals and groups. I have extensive experience and training in Cognitive/Behavioral, Experiential and Mindfulness methods of counseling.

Prior to becoming a professional, I experienced first hand the devastating effects of mood problems. Having had my own struggle with anxiety, depression (including post partum depression), addictions and the trans-formative healing that comes with recovery, I have learned to understand myself, live joyfully and make many healthy practices part of my life. I bring compassion and understanding to each counseling session gleaned from my own experience in overcoming anxiety and depression. This combination of education, training, experience and a heartfelt desire to make a difference gives me a unique advantage in helping you.
As a longtime meditator, a TM-Sidha, a student and teacher of yoga and a recovering person, I am committed to my own continued growth and recovery and have a passion for helping others. Throughout my recovery I have learned to improve my marriage and become a better parent. I enjoy spending time with my family and am an active member of my community, making time to volunteer at local non-profit agencies.
Having sought out training with the best teachers and therapists, I have special training from experts in their field. For example, I have trained under Amy Wientraub, best selling author of Yoga for Depression and am qualified as an advanced level Life force Yoga teacher and Practitioner. Other mentors have been Anne Wilson Schaef, James Windell, both best selling authors. In addition I have trained with Ted Klontz, P.H.D. from Onsite and taken many other workshops from qualified professionals.
I specialize in alternative and holistic methods as well as traditional therapy, helping you make a solid mind-body alliance that will reconnect you to the life you want. Learn more.
