Amy Ellowitz

Amy Ellowitz

Therapist

In-person • 17 mi away • Sunrise, FL


My name is Amy Lee Ellowitz and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in working with individuals navigating major life transitions who struggle with feeling overwhelmed by loss, relationship changes, identity shifts, and other "lifequakes" that shake their foundation.

I help by blending evidence-based therapeutic methods with genuine understanding drawn from my own experiences with transformation, creating a safe space where you remain in the driver's seat while building resilience and rediscovering your authentic self. In our first few sessions, you can expect a compassionate, affirming environment where your story is honored, your pace is respected, and we begin processing your experiences while establishing the foundation for meaningful growth. My practice is unique because I bring personal understanding of life's major disruptions and view challenges as opportunities for transformation rather than defining moments, always honoring your unique identity and journey. I am passionate about this work because your story matters deeply to me, and I believe lifequakes can become the foundation for renewed purpose—you don't have to navigate these changes alone, and witnessing your resilience and growth is deeply meaningful.

My clients arrive feeling overwhelmed by major life disruptions. They're questioning who they are, feeling isolated, and struggling with anxiety or grief. They want to rediscover themselves, build resilience, and transform their pain into meaningful growth with compassionate support.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Hialeah, FL

Finding LGBTQIA therapists in Hialeah starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly lists experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people, including concerns related to gender identity, sexual identity, family relationships, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Training in affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health-informed care can signal a closer fit. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, who they support, and what you may expect in sessions.

Hialeah has local therapy options, and the number of LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while keeping care accessible from home. As you compare LGBTQ friendly therapists in Hialeah, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For some people, therapist background, identity, language, or lived experience may also matter. Reading profiles before booking can help you find a therapist who directly names LGBTQIA+ populations and describes a communication style that fits your needs.

Therapy in Hialeah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before booking. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Hialeah, FL, who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and see estimated costs upfront, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to book when you are.
