Eleana Coll

Eleana Coll is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of clinical experience. She speaks English and Spanish and brings a bicultural perspective shaped by her own immigration background. Eleana focuses on practical steps people can take when life feels overwhelming, whether that looks like anxiety, depression, grief, or struggles with anger and addiction.

She helps people sort out the immediate problems they face. Sessions typically cover symptoms, coping skills, and small changes that add up over time. Eleana uses clear tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and from Motivational Interviewing to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change.

Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to teach grounding and stress management. She also draws on humanistic ideas to build a respectful, supportive relationship where clients feel heard. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can handle.

Her background includes work with immigration and acculturation concerns, trauma and abuse, and substance-related challenges. She has provided individual and group work that considered cultural context and real-life barriers. Those experiences inform how she helps people find realistic solutions.

Eleana encourages people to bring whatever feels most urgent to the first meetings. She guides goal setting and practical strategies for daily life. If you want a therapist who mixes hands-on tools with culturally aware care, she may be a good fit.

Therapy Approaches and How They Work Online

Eleana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test out different ways of thinking and behaving. CBT sessions often focus on concrete skills you can practice between meetings to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or change habits.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their reasons for change and to build confidence. This approach is conversational and helps people move from uncertainty to action by exploring personal goals and values.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and then suggest techniques that fit your needs. Decisions about pacing, tools, and homework are made collaboratively so plans match what you can do day to day.

Confirm which online session formats are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness or behavioral practice in the same environment where they live, making new skills easier to apply. Licensed professionals will discuss practical arrangements during the intake to shape sessions that work with your routine.
