Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people build moment-to-moment awareness and act in line with their values. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions aim to identify what matters most to the client, set small goals, and practice concrete steps between meetings.

Online support
Emotion-focused and skills-based care online
Eliana commonly integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions drive patterns, helping people notice and change how feelings shape their relationships and reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learning practical skills to shift them.She also uses elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice the present moment and choose actions that match their values. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods in session, and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful for the client.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and do longer conversations. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging allow brief check-ins, ongoing support, and flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work between in-person obligations.
