I am licensed in the state of Montana to do mental health counseling and therapy, as well as a Certified Coach. I’ve been self-employed for over 30 years and have a wide range of experience. I particularly work with persons who experience anxiety, stress and depression - often as a result of family problems and frequently work issues! I’ve also worked with all branches of the military working with troops and family both in the USA and abroad.
My style of counseling tends to be more direct than passive. I believe in warmth, compassion and listening along with guidance and direction offered. I do not give advise; I am your mirror and help you see what you most want and need. Therapy is an individual journey, so the path we carve together is unique in it’s terrain, speed and outcome.
I look forward to meeting each client with an open mind and heart. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Ellen is such an amazing therapist! I was reluctant to try therapy but she is the nicest and most understanding person and I’m so glad she’s my therapist! She knows when to take things a little easier and when to be blunt, it has helped me with a lot of different issues in my life.

Ellen is the first therapist I’ve been with that didn’t treat me like an idiot. I never had to re-explain my feelings and our conversations never felt stagnant. She is very energetic and kind, and helped me find new perspectives to my concerns (which for an over-thinker is very impressive). Thanks Ellen❤️

Ellen is really wonderful, she's my favourite therapist to date (I've had many, haha). She asks good questions and challenges me to look deeper when it might not be the comfortable thing to do. She's open minded and kind, it's easy to talk to her. I have been seeing her for a while and my partner thinks I've become more confident, self aware and less anxious. Highly recommend! Thank you Ellen

Ellen has been excellent to work with. She responds quickly to any questions or concerns and follows up to see how I am doing. Our sessions have been great and allowed me to reach the goals I set for my therapy. She is extremely knowledgeable and caring but provides worthwhile insights to move forward.

Ellen is a true professional!! She is exactly what I had been looking for in a therapist. She is understanding, asks questions to get a true understanding of my experiences, and actually makes me laugh. I leave her sessions feeling more informed, empowered, and like I am making true progress.

Ellen was amazing! She helped me navigate a difficult stage of life, and I am so grateful for her empathy and her objective insight. Additionally, my general experience with BetterHelp was extremely positive. My therapist was a great match. The BetterHelp platform was simple and easy to use. I would 100% recommend BetterHelp (and Ellen Savage) to anyone needing to find a therapist.

Ellen has been an incredible asset for my personal development. She is up-front and honest and will respectfully tell you how it is instead of just telling you what you want to hear. She has helped me make huge strides in my relationships, career and personal development, and has given me tools to dive deeper into the areas of my personality and past that are holding me back. She is an excellent active listener, asking clarifying questions along the way, which makes you feel incredibly heard and understood in a way that is difficult to find these days. Would 10/10 recommend for anyone who is truly looking to grow and learn, and not just looking for someone to give them kind words and a pat on the back.

Ellen was extremely helpful and kind to me during each of our sessions. She was forward with me and helped me to resolve my issues and answer my own questions in a supportive and encouraging manner.
