Ellen Bello, LMFT

Ellen is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in New York with nearly a decade of clinical experience. Her work sits at the intersection of psychoanalytic and systemic thinking.

Her work is relational at its core, including your relationship to yourself. She believes that strong relationships give you a base to launch from and return to. Together, you’ll look at the early relationships and beliefs that shape how you connect today and consider which still serve you. She brings an attachment-informed lens to this work, drawing on emotion-focused and transgenerational frameworks, along with DBT skills when you need tools for the hard moments.

Ellen is also trained in rites of passage and can help you honor the transitions and losses that our culture often forgets to acknowledge. You can expect curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to stay with what is hard.

She holds a master’s in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy and an M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy. She works with individuals and couples on relationship difficulties, family-of-origin patterns, parenting, grief and loss, and life transitions.

Ellen offers teletherapy in English and Spanish to clients located in New York, so you can do this work from the comfort and privacy of your own space.
