Elane de Vos Ph.D., LCMHC

Elane earned her Master’s in Psychology with distinction from the University of Pretoria in South Africa. After relocating to the United States, she earned her Doctorate in Psychology with a Jungian Specialization through Saybrook University in California. Elane is passionate about psychology and continues to deepen her expertise through ongoing study at the International Psychotherapy Institute, as well as by attending intensive courses at the Jung Institute in Zurich and the Tavistock Clinic in London. She has presented at the International Jungian Conference in Cape Town and at the American Mental Health Counselors Association conferences in Florida and New Orleans.

Elane brings extensive experience in trauma-focused and psychodynamic psychotherapy, with clinical expertise spanning multicultural sensitivity, attachment-informed care, and the integration of evidence-based interventions with creative therapeutic methods. Elane has more than two decades of advanced training in Jungian psychology, Object Relations Theory, and trauma-informed approaches. She is committed to supporting clients from diverse backgrounds in navigating anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, and complex life transitions.

Elane views every client as a treasured book, with each page and chapter offering wisdom and meaning. She feels honored to sit with clients and explore a line, a paragraph, or a chapter of their lives, sometimes revisiting early attachment wounds to see how they continue to shape choices and relationships today.

Elane is deeply curious about people and the world around her. She treasures meaningful connections and has a lifelong love of culture, literature, and travel. Her journey began in South Africa, continued through the Netherlands and Australia, and has brought her to the United States, where she is now a proud citizen. These diverse experiences have shaped her appreciation for different perspectives and enriched both her life and her work as a counselor and coach.
