Anxiety. Depression. Life Stressors. Disordered Eating.
We can Help.

Welcome! I’m Ellie Herman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. I opened Step By Step Counseling LLC in order to provide quality online, or virtual, therapy services to to anyone experiencing difficult times.

Personalization: We believe in person-centered care. No one style of therapy works for everyone. We want you to feel that we understand your unique needs. This might mean we approach therapuetic interventions with your special interests in mind and tailor our practice to fit you.

 

Strengths-based: Our therapists, Ellie and Jennie, are dedicated to emphasizing your strengths in managing transitions and well-being. You have many skills already; we want to hone them. To do this, we rely on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solutions Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders, Intuitive Eating, Mindfulness, Feminist Theory, and a few other strength-based modalities which we integrate into your sessions.

Comfort: Do you want to sit on your own couch for therapy? Would you like to be outside for your session? We choose to provide high quality services virtually so that you can choose where you feel best: safe, secure, and open. Also, we love to see your pets.

 

Inclusivity: You are unique! We want to make people of all races, sizes, ethnicity, and identities feel seen and accepted. We believe in gender-affirming, weight-neutral treatment that is rooted in the Health At Every Size paradigm.

Anxiety

“Do I have anxiety?”

 

The answer is – “probably.” Most people experience a degree of anxiety during their lives. 

Eating Disorders

“Do I have an eating disorder?”

 

Eating disorders are complex mental health diagnoses and considering the criteria for diagnosis can be confusing.

Depression

“Maybe I’m depressed?”

 

Most of us have had this thought at some point when we feel low, sad, or stuck.
