Where Progress Soothes Perfection

Hello and Welcome — I am glad you are here; now take a moment to breathe. I am Dr. Sherika Elliott and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I support individuals and couples who are seeking clarity, connection, and healing—especially in the areas where life feels stuck, overwhelming, or disconnected. 🌱 How I Got Started My journey into therapy began with a deep curiosity about human behavior, emotional resilience, and relationships. I have always been drawn to the moments people feel most vulnerable—and most human. After witnessing how safe, nonjudgmental connection can be, I knew I wanted to be part of creating that for others. 🎯 My Approach I specialize in working with: * Adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and grief * Individuals healing from attachment injuries, blended families, adoption, or complex family dynamics * Individuals/Couples working to improve communication, trust, and emotional safety * Clients exploring identity, self-worth, and boundaries to apply discernment and prudence to unapologetically say "no" I draw from evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), attachment-focused work, mindfulness, inner child healing, and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). At the heart of my work is creating a space where *you* feel seen—not just as a diagnosis or set of symptoms, but as a whole person. Why This Work Matters Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reclaim your voice, trust your inner wisdom, and build a life that feels aligned. Whether you're working through trauma, strengthening your relationships, or learning to finally put yourself first, I am here to walk with you—not ahead of you or behind you. If you are curious about working together, I would be honored to connect for a 15 min phone consultation. Let’s explore what healing could look like for you. Warmly, Dr. Sherika Elliott, LCSW-C CEO of Hope Happy Heal Consulting Services LLC. (202)-810-1702 begin@hopehappyheal.com
