About Befriending Our Bodies

Befriending Our Bodies is a woman-owned counseling practice that has been helping people heal since 2018. We offer services with a licensed therapist for one-on-one work through a clinical and holistic lens. Therapist and owner Holli Ellis tries to work herself out of a job by empowering clients to build the life they want. She also partners with other professionals and healers to put a team around her clients to help them meet their goals.
