How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and tailoring the work to each person's needs. In practice this means sessions begin with the client's goals and pace, and the therapist adjusts exercises and talk topics to fit what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches simple techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on improving emotional awareness and communication for people who want better connection in their relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Elisa will talk with each person about what they want to change and which methods feel right, then test those approaches and adjust as goals shift. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the individual's needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat can fit a short check-in during a break, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats let people access consistent support around work, caregiving, or other busy schedules.
