About Elisa
Elisa Shevlin-Reynolds is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 22 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, parenting struggles, career questions, depression, and compassion fatigue.
She uses clear, practical conversations to help people manage day-to-day problems. Sessions focus on concrete skills for coping with change, improving communication, and reducing overwhelming feelings. The emphasis is on what can be tried between appointments to make life easier.
Her background includes long clinical experience across many life stages and caregiving roles. Elisa draws on a mix of approaches so that sessions match the situation. That mix helps when people are dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, or shifts in family structure.
People working through attachment wounds, abandonment issues, body image concerns, or the emotional strain of divorce and separation will find focused, skills-based work. She also supports those coping with dissociation, commitment or control issues, and problems tied to blended families.
In sessions Elisa blends techniques from cognitive and behavioral approaches with client-focused conversation and skills from acceptance and dialectical models. The goal is pragmatic progress: clearer choices, better communication, and more effective ways to manage difficult feelings. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches for remote sessions
Elisa commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on identifying what matters to the person and practicing small, value-driven actions even when emotions are hard. CBT looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches concrete skills for changing behavior and managing symptoms.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and then try ways of working that fit the problem at hand. Adjustments are made over time if an approach is not helping the way the client expects.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Online work can make it easier to practice skills between appointments and to keep therapy consistent during life changes.
