Dr. Holly Hanley, LMFT, DBH
AAMFT Approved Supervisor
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist | Doctor of Behavioral Health
Hello and welcome. I’m Holly — a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting couples, families, and individuals through life’s transitions. I hold a Doctor of Behavioral Health (DBH), which deepens my ability to offer integrated, evidence-based care.
I’m a wife, mother, military veteran, and fellow traveler on this human journey. I bring warmth, respect, and presence to every session. Your story matters deeply to me, and it’s my privilege to walk beside you with care and understanding.
In our time together, you’ll always feel seen, heard, and safe — free to heal, grow, and be exactly where you are. Whether we’re exploring relationships, past wounds, or the changes of midlife, I’m here to support you with intention and compassion.
I look forward to beginning this journey with you.

Hi there!
I’m Ellen, a Marriage and Family Therapy student intern at Syracuse University. For more than
five years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting families impacted by mental health challenges. In
addition to my clinical training, I serve as a support group facilitator and educator with the
National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Through this work, I’ve witnessed the courage and
resilience that people carry, and it has inspired me to create spaces where clients feel safe,

In our work together, my goal is to walk alongside you collaboratively—honoring your story while
exploring your dreams, goals, and desires. I believe deeply in the power of love, respect, and
kindness, and I draw on these values as we work toward healing and fulfillment. It is an honor to
share in your journey, and I look forward to helping you discover the strengths and possibilities
that already live within you.
