Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
I first got my start in ministry working as a worship leader and musician, and later in the private and public schools as a teacher. These experiences opened my eyes to the need for people of all ages to find healing through difficult experiences. My therapy career began in the private practice setting and then I worked at a clinic as a child and family therapist for several years before starting my own practice. My specialization and training is in working with couples, kids and families and individuals. Currently, I'm an EMDR certified therapist which is one of the best evidence based trauma recovery models for those wanting to move through painful experiences and find healing from trauma. My goal is to walk with you on the healing journey and help you understand how to have a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Are you carrying the heavy load of trauma, feeling like an imposter in your own body? It's challenging to navigate daily life when the weight of past experiences looms over you. Your relationship may be strained because your partner doesn't understand what's wrong, and you find yourself trapped in constant ruminating thoughts, losing sight of your purpose.
