Remote sessions and therapeutic approach
Elisandra offers online sessions that combine practical skill building with reflective, person-centered conversation. Sessions are shaped by the priorities and pace of each individual, with an emphasis on developing coping strategies for stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma. She communicates in English and Portuguese and meets people where they are to co-create a plan for change.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and to create concrete, testable steps toward change. Mindfulness Therapy supports present-moment awareness and self-regulation skills that can reduce reactivity and make new choices more available. Together these approaches provide both tools and awareness for everyday coping.
Elisandra also integrates Client-Centered and Solution-Focused methods to keep sessions collaborative and goal oriented, prioritizing what the person wants to address in the short term and over time. Remote options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences.
