Her background includes school social work, outpatient adult therapy, high school behavioral health, and work as a domestic violence counselor. Those roles shaped her experience helping people navigate family problems, trauma and abuse, and crisis situations.
She brings eight years of clinical experience in New Mexico to her practice. In sessions she aims to create a warm, respectful atmosphere where clients feel heard. She treats clients as the experts on their lives and focuses on honest collaboration.
Practical steps and small goals are used to move toward the changes people want.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Elena integrates the Gottman Method to focus on communication patterns and practical tools for improving relationship interactions. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take committed actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.Choosing the right approach happens together. Elena will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs to pick methods that fit each person. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and adjusts methods as work progresses so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for deeper, face-to-face conversations, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing support without scheduling a full session, which can be helpful between appointments or during busy weeks.
