Style and Approach

As an immigrant to the United States, Elliot faced various cultural, social, and economic challenges during his adolescence which formed in him a passion for wholeness and well-being. Working through the resulting depression, anxiety, and identity confusion for many years, he came to experience first-hand healing and growth that he now seeks to share with his clients. The experiences of these transformative years form the building blocks of Elliot’s approach. Eclectically utilizing cognitive, mindfulness-based (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy & Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy), and contemplative approaches to therapy, Elliot is eager to listen to discover resources in your life and witness to obstacles and challenges you’ve overcome.

In therapy, Elliot’s basic commitment is to treat you with unconditional warmth and regard. The safety provided by this softened perception will motivate you to explore without fear of judgment or rejection of your core habits and beliefs. He will help you work through loops that get you stuck, traumatic memories, and more with a special eye to your sense of who you are and how you relate to yourself. As Elliot loves to point out: How harsh or gentle is the voice in your head? How different would the world be if that voice that's always with you were more compassionate and understanding? The truth is that our sense of who we are is always bound up with others' perceptions: We learn to love ourselves from being loved. We learn gentleness from being addressed gently. We grow and heal as we hear words that understand and nurture us—not some cheap, premade words, but words born from attuned, heart-to-heart engagement.

Over time fragmented parts of your personality can become whole, depression turn into acceptance, and anxiety give way to vitality and a readiness to face life. Who knows? One day you might be able to look back at everything with a lens of gratitude!
