Integrative approaches and online support

Elena blends Client-Centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with elements of Existential thinking to shape an approach that is both supportive and practical. Client-Centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person’s own goals and insights guide the work - this is useful for building self-esteem and improving communication. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify patterns of thought and behaviour that contribute to distress and offers concrete strategies to shift those patterns, which can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with stress. Existential therapy encourages exploration of meaning, values, and personal responsibility, supporting people who are wrestling with questions about purpose or life direction.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elena works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and responsive to change.

Online therapy with Elena can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care from different locations and to choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
