About Elisa

Elisa Frazier is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She speaks English and practices in Florida.

Elisa favors a cognitive behavioral approach while drawing on several other methods in session. She focuses on clear, practical steps clients can use between meetings. Sessions center on setting a pace that feels manageable and learning tools to reduce reactivity and handle strong emotions more effectively.

Her work mixes structured skills and open conversation. Clients can expect strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense feelings. Client-centered principles guide how goals are chosen and how progress is reviewed.

Elisa has a background in social work and clinical psychology at the master’s level and a decade of clinical experience. That experience includes helping people who struggle with anger and people living with mood conditions such as bipolar disorder. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client directs the pace.

Practical application is central to her approach. Sessions emphasize tools that can be used in daily life - breathing and grounding techniques, thought records, and behavioral experiments. She encourages realistic steps so changes can stick without creating extra pressure.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Elisa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change the thoughts and behaviors that increase anger. CBT often involves short exercises and behavioral experiments that can be practiced between sessions to test what works.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT skills include breathing, grounding, and simple routines that reduce overheating in the moment. Client-centered therapy shapes how goals are chosen so the work reflects each person’s priorities and pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Elisa will work with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative choice can change over time as people try techniques and see what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking.

The focus is on practical tools you can use between meetings so therapy fits into everyday life rather than adding extra burden.
