“It is with great honor and gratitude that I am writing this testimonial. I can say with absolute certainty that meeting her changed my life, and her ability to counsel me through my most difficult moments of growth was critical to my current success. Elan lives the words she speaks and showed me an example of how one can be humble, resilient, patient, kind, diligent, and joyful through difficulty. There are not enough powerful or positive adjectives in the English language to convey to you the scope and quality of her counsel, but she has an innate skill with empathy and emotional intelligence that allows her to recognize what each individual needs in a given moment. She then delivers the knowledge she has acquired in a way that can be received by even the most resistant of individuals. It is my hope that clients consider my experience with Elan as a counselor.”

“I love the quote, " Once you realize that life is hard, life gets easier.". What a concept, and it sounded so apathetic when I was stuck in a state of victimhood. That's just it though- Life is all about our perspectives & manifestations. Now that I see through a clearer lens, no longer clouded by self-pity, I am able to see that the quote wasn't condemning or belittling to me but I myself was internally projecting that externally into so many situations, encounters, etc. I've learned so many tools to navigate through the trials of life, people, places, situations & personally attacking quotes that I've come to love. This was no easy task & I certainly could've never gotten to where I am alone. Trust me, I'd tried. I have a self help library, got certified as a yoga instructor, tried all the easy buttons but it wasn't working.
Elan helped me to get out of that place of victimhood by genuinely giving me what I needed- basic needs that, when lacking, only fed into my self-written sob story. Feeling validated, I was able to realize that my perceptions were only keeping me in a place of misery & manifesting into a life and personality of negativity. No counselor or therapist I've ever been to has ever made me feel seen, heard, understood, worthy & all without any sort of judgement. Elan always validates my feelings but never writes off on my bullshit. Misery loves company and I used to wallow in "poor me" with friends. Now I don't need my story & traumas to be known; I used to OVERSHARE everywhere trying to be heard, seen & understood.
Now I can typically identify old patterns before even confiding in her. Life does get heavy still & now when I confide in Elan, I can typically find the resolution simply by processing it with her. I've also learned how to walk w/others without needing to carry them from Elan. Boundaries that have lightened so many unnecessary burdens. I can't begin to articulate the lessons I've learned form Elan over the last four years or how cathartic my time with her has been. There was honestly a time when I thought I didn't want to live anymore but the truth is that I wanted to live but I just didn't know how. Today I am so grateful for the most beautiful life I never could've even imagined wanting. I'd have sold myself short if I'd gotten things in life that I thought I wanted. Peace of mind & serenity are the most precious gifts I've found in this life. To share them with my daughter is a miracle and a blessing! I feel so fortunate to have crossed paths with Elan as she has truly helped me change my life.”
