About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Elliott is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Kansas and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with more than 24 years of experience. He has provided counseling across several states and works with people facing concerns like depression, anxiety, substance use, grief, relationship strain, and anger. He focuses on helping people identify practical solutions to current problems.
Jeffrey listens and asks straightforward questions to clarify what feels most pressing. He helps clients set goals and find steps they can try between sessions. Sessions are focused on real-life changes rather than long theory talks.
His work draws on client-centered therapy to center the person's own perspective. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is weighing change, and solution-focused approaches keep work goal-directed and brief when that fits.
People come to him for a range of issues: addiction, grief and loss, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, stress and workplace frustration, intimacy concerns, family conflict, trauma and other losses. He describes each person as unique and builds plans from what the person brings to the room.
Practical problem solving is central to his style. Sessions aim to clarify the next steps, address barriers, and track small changes over time. He asks clients to try specific actions between sessions and then revisits what worked and what didn’t.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspectives. Online sessions using this approach mean conversations start with what matters most to the client, and the therapist follows their lead to set goals and next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. In online sessions this looks like identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing small behavioral experiments, and tracking results between meetings to reduce stress, anxiety, or anger-driven reactions.
Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It uses short conversations that explore a person’s reasons for and against change and builds momentum toward practical action.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the options, listen to goals and preferences, and suggest what to try first. That choice can change over time based on what helps most.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also allows practical homework review and real-time discussion of problems that come up between meetings.
