Ernie O’Connell LMHC

Ernie O'Connell LMHC works primarily with millennials and college students who are looking for support through life transitions. The transitions involve moving, beginning/ending relationships, and making career changes. She also assists those struggling with sexual and relationship issues.

Ernie believes that life transitions do not need to be overwhelming. Having the right support can make these times full of self-growth and personal betterment. We all go through transformative periods in life; Ernie can help you accept these inevitable changes and use them to better yourself.

Together, your work with Ernie will help you navigate difficult emotions and feelings while learning to recognize/change negative thought patterns. You will gain the ability to feel comfortable and confident with yourself, increase your ability to cope with your stressors, improve your relationships, and resolve any past traumas. This process will happen in a safe, judgment-free space. 

Ernie takes a warm, humanistic, and collaborative approach to therapy, and she deeply values and believes in the power of the therapist-client relationship. So much can be accomplished when there is trust and support in each session.
