Dori Ellowitch

Dori (she/her)Dori (she/her) uses a collaborative approach to foster the kind of change that helps you feel better prepared to navigate what life throws your way. 

Before becoming a psychotherapist, Dori spent over 15 years in marketing and corporate leadership. She understands the pressures of high-performing environments - the constant demands, complex relationships, and internal expectations that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or burnt out. This perspective allows her to connect deeply with professionals who are balancing ambition with emotional well-being.

Dori completed her graduate training at Rutgers University. Her practice is rooted in the psychodynamic approach, which allows for deep exploration of the historical, foundational experiences that shape who we are. She also integrates EMDR and somatic trauma therapies, offering effective, body-based approaches for when insight alone isn’t enough to create change. Her work is trauma-informed and neurodiversity affirming, creating a space where you can feel understood without judgment.

Dori helps individuals and couples navigate a wide range of challenges including anxiety, grief, interpersonal trauma, and relationship challenges. She has deep experience supporting people going through life transitions and coping with associated struggles. She also specializes in working with people who have ADHD, tailoring her approach for the unique way it presents in men and women. Many of her clients come in feeling “too sensitive,” “too much,” or chronically overwhelmed—only to discover that these experiences are connected to patterns like internalized hyperactivity, perfectionism, and emotional intensity. Together, you'll build insight, reduce shame, and develop strategies that actually work for how your brain operates.

Dori understands that coming to therapy and beginning the change process can feel intimidating. She aims to have each session feel like a natural conversation like you might have with a friend, to foster discussions that are open and supportive, so you can move toward lasting personal growth.

Dori sees clients in person at our 8th Avenue and Keap Street offices.
