Elena Negron, CSW, Therapist at Gentle Guardians Counseling Center

Hi, I'm Elena! 

As a therapist, I'm passionate about creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you to navigate life's challenges. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey, and my approach is grounded in both empathy and evidence-based practices. We will work together to understand your concerns and build a personalized plan to help you achieve your goals and improve your well-being.

​

My specialty is working with individuals who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance abuse. I'm here to support you in developing practical skills and effective coping strategies to find relief and begin the process of healing.

​

You don't have to face these struggles alone. I am committed to guiding you on this path and empowering you to build a more hopeful and fulfilling future.

When I'm Not Working 

In my free time, I enjoy nothing more than spending quality time with my family and friends, whether it's gathering for a meal or just being together. My two furry dog babies are a huge part of my life, and I love taking them on walks and cuddling with them on the couch. I also have a deep passion for traveling and exploring new places, which helps me recharge and find inspiration.
