Ellie Lauterwasser, LCPC, C-DBT 

 My clinical experience includes working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in various settings such is psychiatric inpatient, residential centers, community mental health centers, and private practice. I graduated from Loyola University in 2009.​My approaches include; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Behavioral Activation, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, HAES, and Trauma-Informed. I believe that creating a safe and non-judgmental environment is essential in order for healing to take place.​My approach is honest, empathetic, and relational in order to help clients gain self-awareness. By focusing on clients’ strengths and values, I help them learn healthy ways to overcome challenges and empower them to make positive changes in their lives.
