Client Testimonials


“I cannot express enough gratitude for the transformative work I’ve done with Dr. Carni through EMDR therapy.  After years of trying various forms of talk therapy without success, I finally experienced true relief from a deeply painful childhood trauma.  I only wish I had found Dr. Carni and EMDR sooner.  Her compassionate approach and expertise have brought me a sense of peace and clarity that I never thought possible.  I am so appreciative of her kindness, care, and the life-changing impact her work has had on me.”

“I worked closely with Dr. Carni for over a year.  She is a wonderful psychologist, therapist and human being.  She has an empathic, caring nature, that made it easy for me to open up and talk freely with her.  She provided excellent perspective and advice and suggests books and articles that can also help.  She is the one that will be honest with you, telling you how it is, even if it’s not what you want to hear, but rather what you need to hear.  I would strongly recommend Dr. Carni to any of my friends and family.  She’s the best.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Ellen Carni Ph.D. for approximately six years and she was a tremendous help to me at a time when I really needed compassion and insight into a problem I was not handling very well.  She is very perceptive and understanding and will help you explore your issues and resolve them.  She is empathic, knowledgeable, encouraging and has an amazing way of making her clients feel safe and taken care of.  Her manner is both nurturing and uplifting.”

“I have known Dr. Ellen Carni for over thirty years and have first hand knowledge of her integrity, compassion, kindness and skill as a clinician.  Dr. Carni’s approach is eclectic an sensitively attuned to the unique needs of each client.  When I refer to her, I know clients are in excellent hands.”

“In thinking about the qualities that I know are essential in a psychoanalyst/psychotherapist, Dr. Carni has them all.  She is creative in her thinking, has many talents at her disposal and is very resourceful in her work.  She is nonjudgemental with her patients regardless of their background.  She approaches each individual with empathy and compassion.   Taking an integrative approach to therapy, she has many tools in her therapeutic toolbox e.g. EMDR.  Dr. Carni and I have been colleagues for ten years and I regularly refer patients to her.  I know they will be treated with caring, listened to intelligently and understood with a depth of knowledge.”
