How therapeutic approaches and online options fit together

Elissa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress management. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to narrow in on small, concrete steps that move a person toward their goals; it works well for short-term concerns and practical problem solving.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Elissa will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities, and then recommend which methods to try first. She adjusts the plan over time based on what helps and what doesn’t, so clients help shape the work as it unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people have more in-depth conversations and use visual cues, while phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging work for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
