Ellenhorn

Our founder and CEO, Ross Ellenhorn, was recently featured on "The Proper Mental" podcast! In this episode, Dr. Ellenhorn and host Tom Davies discuss the medicalization of the human experience, the power of curiosity and play in therapy, and why human conformity can be the biggest obstacle to authenticity. They also dive into Ross’s years of research on why change is so difficult, and the role that a fear of hope plays in keeping us stuck.

2025 marks 20 years since Ellenhorn set out to close the gap in mental health care, bringing flexible, comprehensive support into the real world where people live, work, and thrive. From our start in a small office in Cambridge, MA to the most robust community integration program in the U.S., we've set the standard for care that blends the social and psychological—and we continue to raise that standard, knowing that true growth always involves both.. As we celebrate this milestone, we're also embracing growth in more ways than one. Today, we’re unveiling our newly redesigned website—built to reflect the depth and heart of our work today. Explore the new site and celebrate 20 years with us: https://www.ellenhorn.com #Ellenhorn #20YearsOfCare #CommunityIntegration

What can improvisational theater teach us about psychotherapy? More than you might think. In a lively and thought-provoking conversation, Ellenhorn Founder & CEO Dr. Ross Ellenhorn and SHARE Director Dr. Jeff Katzman explore the art of spontaneity in therapy, the role of uncertainty in healing, and how the act of "holding space" is, at its core, an improvisational act. Their discussion previews the upcoming Treasure of Ordinary Psychotherapy talk series, where Dr. Ellenhorn will present "The Art of Holding" on March 19, 2025. Read the full blog and discover why therapy, like improv, thrives on connection, curiosity, and boldness. https://lnkd.in/eKM76a7D Register for Dr. Ellenhorn's March 19 presentation here: https://lnkd.in/eNCqkQ3g

Ellenhorn's Chief Medical Officer, Matthew Bernstein, MD, was recently featured on an episode of the "Psychiatry Tomorrow" Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Bernstein shares his journey from McLean Hospital’s acute unit to pioneering treatment models that meet individuals where they are. He explores how psychiatry’s approach to risk differs from other medical specialties, the role of measurement-based care in managing complexity, and how metabolic psychiatry is shaping the future of treatment. His story offers a powerful perspective on what it takes to balance clinical risk with recovery potential, and why the most meaningful healing happens in the real world, not in isolation. At Ellenhorn, we know that true recovery unfolds in community, not behind locked doors. Dr. Bernstein’s work is a testament to that belief.

It's not too late to join Mentalizing Connections, a six-part webinar series presented by Ellenhorn and the Mentalizing Initiative. This Wednesday, February 26, Dr. Jeffrey Katzman, Director of Education at Silver Hill Hospital, will explore the intersection of attachment theory and mentalization. This presentation will examine how early attachment experiences shape an individual's ability to mentalize - the capacity to understand and interpret one's own and others' mental states. Drawing from key figures in attachment theory and contemporary psychology, Dr. Katzman will discuss how secure attachment fosters mentalization, while insecure attachment styles can hinder it, impacting relationships, emotional regulation, and clinical practice. Missed earlier sessions? No problem! You can still register and earn CE credits for each live session you attend. Don't miss this opportunity to deepen your clinical expertise and explore the power of mentalization.
