About Elisa
Elisa Parker is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people handle stress and anxiety. She focuses on relationship concerns, self-esteem, motivation, ADHD, and managing life changes. Elisa draws on six years of clinical experience and treats each person as the expert in their own story.
Elisa listens first and then works with clients to set clear, achievable goals. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to break down problems into manageable steps.
How Elisa works
When relationship patterns are part of the issue, she brings in ideas from the Gottman Method to improve communication and connection. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Elisa helps people build skills for coping, boost confidence, and make small changes that add up.
She explains techniques plainly and practices them together in session so clients can use them between meetings. Her experience includes a range of personal and family challenges such as adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, attachment questions, and family of origin topics. She also supports people facing medical and life transitions including cancer, fertility, aging, and immigration-related stress.
Elisa welcomes people who want a practical path forward. She helps set realistic steps, tracks progress, and adjusts the plan when needed. The work is collaborative, with attention to what a person already does well.

Online support options
Online approaches that fit your day and goals
Elisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, low mood, and many daily challenges because it breaks problems into small, practical steps.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, concrete goals and to build on what already works. This approach helps people see quick wins and develop momentum toward larger changes.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, suggest methods that match those needs, and adjust plans as progress is made. This collaborative process helps find a fit that feels useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video calls are good for more in-depth conversations, phone sessions can work with lower bandwidth, live chat lets you check in quickly, and messaging supports brief updates or reflection between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
