About Eliot
Eliot Rosenstock is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California who helps people manage symptoms and regain steadiness in daily life. He works with adults facing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, grief, relationship and intimacy struggles, addiction, ADHD, and related concerns. Eliot speaks English and accepts international clients for online work.
Eliot uses a mix of practical problem-solving and deeper talking work. He draws on cognitive approaches to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on psychodynamic ideas to look at what lies under those thoughts.
Background and approach
He also weaves in mindfulness and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people regulate strong emotions and reduce impulsive reactions. Sessions are geared toward clear, achievable goals. Eliot asks about what a better day looks like and helps build step-by-step plans to get there.
He values straightforward conversation and gives tools people can use between sessions to track progress and feel more in control. In therapy he pays attention to both conscious choices and the less obvious patterns that shape behavior. That can include talking about past relationships, attachment wounds, or recurring thoughts and habits that keep someone stuck.
Eliot aims to help clients notice those patterns and make different choices. His style is direct but supportive. He encourages collaboration on treatment goals and adjusts strategies as needed.
People who want practical change alongside deeper understanding may find his approach useful.
Approaches and how they work online
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors tied to them; it helps with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related concentration problems, and panic symptoms by teaching practical skills to test and reframe thoughts. DBT offers emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that reduce impulsive actions and improve handling strong feelings. Mindfulness therapy trains attention and present-moment awareness to reduce rumination and improve focus and emotional balance.Finding the right approach is part of the process and Eliot treats this as a collaborative effort. He will review your concerns and goals, try strategies that fit your needs, and shift techniques if something isn't working. The aim is to pick methods that match your situation and build on what helps you feel steadier and more capable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit your life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and deeper talk. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and work well for check-ins or when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, or getting brief coaching between sessions. These options add flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and let people keep therapy consistent across busy weeks.
