About Elisa
She brings together several approaches rather than relying on a single technique. That mix can include work on relationships and attachment, mindfulness practices, and exploration of personal history. She also uses transpersonal art therapy and life and career mentoring when these fit a person's needs.
Elisa draws on long experience in counselling and human resources. Since 2008 she has concentrated on biographical counselling and transpersonal art therapy, so her work often pays attention to life story and creative expression. She mentions a personal meditation practice that she may share as a tool during sessions.
Clients typically come for help with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with addictions, eating concerns, parenting strain, career questions and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Additional focuses include attachment, codependency and family of origin issues.
Her approach is collaborative and practical. Sessions aim to identify strengths, shift unhelpful patterns and rehearse new ways of coping. People who prefer some creative or reflective methods may find the art-based elements useful.
Elisa works from the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP in her profile. If language needs or specific concerns matter, she speaks English, Italian and Portuguese.

How her approaches translate to online work
Elisa combines attachment-focused work, client-centred methods and mindfulness in a practical way. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships influence current patterns and can help with trust, closeness and communication problems. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and pacing, offering a space where the counsellor follows the person's lead and helps them find their own solutions. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can be useful for anxiety and mood shifts.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Elisa will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then shape sessions around that conversation. This collaborative stance means approaches can be combined or adjusted as progress is made.
Please confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can help sessions fit into busy lives by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules demand, or making it easier to keep continuity while travelling. It also lets people include mindfulness practices or art-based exercises between meetings to make steady progress.
