Elena is a mother, student intern therapist, VA employee, and powerful advocate for systemic change. Her journey—navigating the trauma of a missing child, overcoming betrayal and heartbreak, rebuilding from the ground up, and helping others heal along the way—is both deeply moving and inspiring.
She’s not just talking about trauma and resilience—she’s lived it. And she’s using that experience to support veterans, guide therapy clients, and draft legislation to protect vulnerable children.
This conversation is real, raw, and filled with the kind of strength that defines what it means to keep going when everything feels broken.
