She uses techniques from Mindfulness based therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help clients recognize and understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.  Elena always customizes her therapeutic approach based on the needs and goals of each client.   Therapy is a collaborative process between therapist and client, and as such you are encouraged to be honest about your hopes and needs from the therapeutic process.  At the core of her practice, is a belief in each person's ability to live life with intention, not purely out of habit.  Though introspection and self-growth can be extremely challenging, it's almost always a challenge we benefit from in the long-term.
