Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Elida brings together client-centered care, cognitive behavioral therapy, and narrative therapy to support people working through relationship, grief, and life transition concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance and focuses on understanding each person’s experience so the therapist and client can collaborate on goals; this approach helps when a compassionate, validating space is needed to explore feelings and values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, centers on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, or depression and teaching practical skills to shift those patterns. It is often useful for people seeking concrete tools for coping and emotional regulation. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives and helps separate the person from their problems so new, more empowering narratives can be developed; this can be helpful for making sense of loss, identity shifts, or long-standing relationship patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Elida will work with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals and will tailor interventions accordingly, adjusting methods as progress unfolds. Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and continue care across life changes and geographic constraints.
