Elliott

Mr Elliott Maruffi-Cowley

Counselor

Congratulations on taking the first step toward becoming your best you! My name is Elliott Maruffi-Cowley, LCSW and I look forward to working with you.

About Me

I understand that taking this first step can feel significant. My aim is to create a supportive space where you can truly explore what's on your mind. We work together, at your pace, to uncover insights. Sessions offer a calm, collaborative environment. This helps you develop practical ways forward and build lasting well-being. My approach suits those ready to reflect and invest in their personal growth.

Approach

Since you've taken this step, my focus is on how we move together—gentle, steady, and practical—so momentum builds without overwhelm. From my Long Beach office or in secure online sessions conducted in English, you’ll find a calm, collaborative rhythm: short experiments between meetings, clear tools for attention and emotion, and invitation to try new ways of relating to yourself and others. This approach often suits adolescents and adults navigating transitions, ADHD challenges, relationship shifts, or those seeking steady personal growth.
