Ellen Feely, LICSW joined Chestnut Hill Pediatrics in August 2023. She is working part time in the office on Mondays and Thursdays.
Ellen received her undergraduate degree from Loyola University in Maryland and holds a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. Her social work career has focused on supporting, empowering and advocating for youth and families, and includes experience in schools, outpatient psychiatry, Early Intervention and the juvenile justice system. She received certification in Advanced Clinical Practice with Children, Youth and Families through Boston College Continuing Education.
Born and raised in the Boston area, Ellen moved to Texas in 2003 to serve for one year at a Houston children's shelter with the AmeriCorps VISTA program.
