Eliana Gassette , LMHC

Eliana Gassette is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people facing low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, life transitions, ADHD, grief, stress, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with parenting stress, anger, career questions, trauma and abuse, and coaching needs. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 13 years of clinical experience to her work.

Eliana centers sessions on each person’s strengths and life story. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and works alongside them to set realistic goals. Conversations are straightforward and focused on practical steps that can be used between sessions.

Her approach blends methods that focus on thoughts, emotions, and values. She uses techniques that help people notice unhelpful thinking, build emotion regulation skills, and clarify what matters enough to act on. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Eliana pays attention to the real-world demands people face, such as caregiving stress, aging concerns, immigration-related issues, and job pressures. She helps with family of origin problems, communication struggles, codependency, and separation or divorce adjustments. Sessions also address impulse control, hoarding behaviors, and attachment concerns when these come up.

Sessions are offered through several online formats to fit busy schedules and different needs. Eliana aims to make therapy practical and approachable, guiding clients through change at a pace that feels manageable.

How Eliana’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, committed actions that match those values. It is often useful for life transitions, low motivation, and when someone feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that worsen mood or anxiety and replacing them with more helpful behaviors and habits. It can help with depression, anxiety, and ADHD-related struggles. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses and improving how people express and process feelings, which can help with grief, attachment issues, and intense emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eliana will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She collaborates on a plan and adjusts methods over time so sessions match what the client needs in the moment.

Eliana offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit daily life. Video sessions let people see facial cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for short check-ins, homework support, or when a quick question comes up between appointments. These formats provide flexibility so therapy can continue around work, caregiving, and travel.
