How Elise works
Much of Elise's work has focused on Autism Spectrum Disorder and developmental differences. She has experience with diagnostic evaluation and planning interventions that connect school, clinical, and community supports. Her approach emphasizes practical strategies people can try between sessions.
Elise is an ICF-certified specialist who uses neurodiversity-affirming and disability-informed principles. She has experience with telehealth and multicultural counseling, and she trains other clinicians. Sessions often blend assessment, skills coaching, and problem-solving to improve daily functioning.
She speaks English and Portuguese and has intermediate ability in Spanish and French. Elise offers phone, video, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule. Starting a first session begins with a short matching process and scheduling that matches therapist availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Elise uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical strategies. One approach emphasizes structured skills training to manage anxiety and stress through breathing, planning, and gradual exposure to feared situations. Another approach centers on coaching-style work that breaks goals into small steps and builds routines to support attention and self-esteem.Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist listens to client needs, goals, and preferences, then suggests techniques to try. That collaborative process can change as work progresses, with adjustments made based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls support face-to-face interaction when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share updates between sessions or send quick questions without scheduling another full appointment.
