How Elli's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small, values-based steps. It helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching acceptance of difficult thoughts and commitment to meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and many everyday struggles. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm, which supports stress management and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Elli will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time and checks in to see what helps most so the plan evolves with your progress.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video helps preserve face-to-face interaction, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging options allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, school, or other commitments.
