How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Elana commonly integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting and testing thoughts that fuel strong reactions and then trying new behaviors to change outcomes. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal communication, which can be useful for anger and relationship stress.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in goal-focused work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, practical steps toward those values even when uncomfortable feelings remain. Finding the best mix of approaches is part of the process and is decided together based on a person’s goals and preferences.
