Elnur Gajiev, PsyD

Aloha, Hello, Hola, Salam, Привет, & こんにちは I'm Dr. Elnur Gajiev—better known by most simply as Dr. El. I am a clinical psychologist, a poet, an educator, a consultant, a coach, and a community collaborator. Essential to each of these roles is my commitment to embracing and empowering all those I encounter towards lives filled with meaning, purpose, connection, growth, and love. In my approach, I draw inspiration from many sources—from the martial arts & mindful movement practices to experiences in academia & organizational leadership, to the creative & expressive arts and, of course, the potent healing inherent in nature & the great outdoors. I strongly believe that fostering an integration of empirically-efficacious practices and principles with those unique strengths that live innately within each of us catalyzes truly meaningful, impactful, and sustainable growth. And so, I offer my expertise and guidance to help connect individuals, collectives, communities, and organizations to their highest values as we navigate the inevitable crests and troughs of life together with a sense of integrity, flexibility, purpose, and a healthy bit of humor. Presently, I am licensed as a Psychologist in the States of Hawai'i and New York, and offer both Individual and Group Telehealth sessions as well as In-Person Retreats throughout the United States and abroad. For those interested in exploring Poetry Therapy with me, please note that I am currently developing more opportunities to offer that practice online. I would be happy to provide you with more information if you would like. Thank you for venturing forth as you have and I am eager connect with you soon to support the growth that lies just ahead. With all my very best, Dr. El
