About Eliot

He sees clients dealing with trauma, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem, and career or life-purpose questions.
Background and approach
Eliot also supports people wrestling with abandonment, attachment wounds, isolation, compulsive behaviors, and panic or phobic symptoms. He focuses on practical change.
Sessions aim to clarify what a person wants and find clear steps to get there. Eliot combines practical thinking tools with attention to deeper feelings that show up in dreams and memories.
He frames therapy as uncovering both conscious and unconscious material that affects daily life. In the room, Eliot uses straightforward conversation and structured techniques.
He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness to build emotion regulation and present-moment awareness.
He brings eight years of clinical experience and practices in California as an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Eliot likes to move at a pace the client finds comfortable and to set clear, achievable goals for change.
His style is direct but empathic, with an emphasis on actionable steps. People work with him when they want to reduce symptoms, improve daily functioning, and gain clearer direction.
He helps clients translate insights into everyday practices that improve mood, sleep, focus, and relationships.
Approaches that guide online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and depression. It gives practical tools for daily problems such as sleep, worry, or compulsive habits.DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It teaches distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness useful for impulse control, anger, and intense mood swings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eliot will review what you want to change and suggest methods that match your goals and preferences. Together you decide whether to lean more on skill-based work, mindful practices, or deeper exploration of patterns that repeat in your life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls provide face-to-face conversation for skill work and deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send short updates, practice skills between sessions, or check in during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, and travel while keeping a steady pace toward goals.
