Evidence-Based Support, Designed for Online Connection
Elissa Baker uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients make sense of what they are experiencing and build skills they can use between sessions. In practice, this often means identifying patterns that keep anxiety, depression, or relationship stress going, then developing new ways of thinking, coping, and communicating that feel more aligned with a client’s values and goals.Her work is also grounded in a collaborative, affirming approach that makes room for identity, relationships, and life transitions. This can be especially helpful for people navigating LGBTQ+ concerns, attachment and abandonment themes, self-esteem and body image struggles, or the stress that can show up in dating, commitment, divorce, or non-monogamous relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Elissa partners with clients to clarify what they want from therapy, what has or has not worked before, and what feels most supportive right now, adjusting the focus as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, stay consistent during life changes, and choose a format that matches comfort level and communication style.
