How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; online sessions use conversation and reflective exercises to pinpoint those patterns and try new ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's goals and choices and creates space for them to guide the work while the therapist listens and responds empathically. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives concrete breathing, thinking, and behavior tools to try between sessions.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. Elisa will talk with each person about what feels most useful, try methods in-session, and adjust plans based on what helps reach the client's goals. The plan evolves as skills are practiced and progress is reviewed together.

Online formats offer practical flexibility: video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging can suit shorter updates or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel and to try different ways of connecting until a good fit is found.
