Owner of Elpis Counseling LLC
Konstantina “Dina” Marlis, MS, LPC-IT
Practices in Waukesha
As an LPC-IT, I am dedicated to supporting children and adolescents as they navigate the complexities of emotional and behavioral development. I strive to create a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental environment where children feel empowered to express themselves, explore their feelings, and build meaningful coping skills.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in person-centered therapy, and I incorporate techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and strengths-based practices to meet each child’s unique needs. I believe in honoring the individuality of every child and helping them access their inner strengths to promote growth and resilience.
With a strong emphasis on early development and attachment, I recognize the powerful impact of a child’s early experiences on their emotional well-being. My work focuses on helping children develop emotional regulation, self-awareness, and problem-solving skills that will serve them both now and in the future.
Whether a child is struggling with anxiety, emotional outbursts, low self-esteem, or early signs of trauma, I provide developmentally sensitive, compassionate care to help them move forward with confidence and hope.
