Hello, my name is Antonio C. Ellzey, Sr., MS, LCPC, NCC. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor with more than 20 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based counseling services to individuals, couples, families, veterans, and adolescents. My professional background includes work in outpatient mental health, residential treatment, foster care, trauma-informed care, and telehealth counseling services.
I earned both my Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Master of Science in Community Counseling from Eastern Illinois University and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision at Walden University.
My counseling approach is rooted in authenticity, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), PTSD and trauma treatment, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship concerns, anger management, emotional regulation, and substance abuse education. I am passionate about helping clients build resilience, improve emotional wellness, strengthen relationships, and develop healthy coping strategies to navigate life’s challenges successfully.
I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to heal, grow, and achieve meaningful personal transformation.
I support those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress management challenges, including panic disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and sleep disorders. I work with individuals experiencing grief and bereavement, end of life issues, infertility, chronic conditions such as diabetes, and other health-related disabilities that impact emotional well-being.

Life is a journey with many unexpected setbacks, life challenges and experiences. I am here to help you manage your journey. My practice is dedicated to providing quality mental health care to help people achieve goals or master skills aimed toward improving their quality of life. I've been practicing for 22 years.
I am a clinical psychologist driven by a deep sense of empathy and a genuine curiosity about human behavior and the motivations that shape our lives. I strive to create a space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and understood without judgment. My approach is grounded in authenticity, both in how I show up and in how I support others in reconnecting with their own genuine selves. I believe that meaningful change begins with understanding, and I am committed to walking alongside each person as they explore their experiences, build insight, and move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with over 28 years of experience guiding individuals and families through their unique journeys toward emotional well-being.

Throughout my career, I have supported clients facing a wide range of challenges, and I am committed to creating a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for healing and growth.
As a grandparent to three wonderful grandchildren, I appreciate the richness and complexity of family life at every stage. In my free time, I love to travel, explore new places, and immerse myself in different cultures. A lifelong reader, I find joy and insight in literature, and I often bring the wisdom of stories into my therapeutic practice. My passions for creativity, travel, and family help me understand the variety of experiences my clients bring, and I strive to honor each person’s individuality in my practice.
Whether you are seeking support for yourself or a loved one, I look forward to meeting you and walking alongside you on your path to greater well-being.
My name is Glen Alan Ensinger. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I lived in Colorado for over one year and was licensed last March. I have been licensed as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois since 2002. I have provided crisis counseling and domestic violence counseling for perpetrators and victims.
