Hi, I'm Elisa Gitan, a therapist and acupuncturist based out of Nashville, TN. I completed my degree at University of Denver, followed by specialized training in forensics and trauma. I studied with Dr. Robert Hare, the expert in psychopaths which inspired me to work with trauma victims.
I am also hold a Masters of Science in Oriental medicine. I have a strong medical knowledge and interest in integrating mind body therapies.
I believe we are meant to expand and grow throughout the course of our lives. I enjoy helping others overcome barriers and harness their personal power and strengths, to live quality lives.
As an expert in the trauma field, I offer science backed approaches and treatments. Focusing on your own resiliency and strengths, I treat therapy as a collaborative process.
I am a Licensed Holistic Clinical Mental Health Counselor and the founder of Be Transformed Counseling. I help individuals move from hurt to wholeness by supporting healing of the mind, body, and spirit. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with holistic practices, while providing a safe, non-judgmental space for growth. I support clients navigating stress, life transitions, emotional pain, and personal transformation. It is my honor to walk alongside you as you pursue clarity, healing, and lasting change.
I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, and I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, collaborative, and human. I bring empathy, a sense of humor, and a strong focus on building a genuine therapeutic connection. I also believe you should set the pace for counseling — this is your space, and we move in a way that feels right for you.
I work with people who feel stuck and are ready for change. Whether you’re facing stress, relationship issues, past hurts, or life transitions, I’m here to help you navigate what feels overwhelming. I’ve provided counseling to adults, youth, and couples in both community mental health and private practice. I’m licensed in Georgia and Florida and bring over 20 years of experience to our work together.
Hi! I'm Maggie Parris, an LCSW based out of East Tennessee. I graduated from East Tennessee State University with a master's in social work and have worked in community based mental health for the last 9 years with children, adolescents, and their families.
You can START therapy THIS week! You don't have to get on anybody's waiting list. My first priority is to relate to each person or couple as unique. Everyone has strengths that can be drawn on to help make therapy a positive, enriching, and productive experience. Let's work together so you can live your best life. No matter where you've been, what you've been through there's ALWAYS hope!
