About Eliana

Eliana Gassette is a Florida LMHC with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also addresses parenting concerns, grief, compassion fatigue, and family of origin issues. She offers services in both English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Her approach is straightforward. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their own life and focuses on practical steps that can change daily patterns. Sessions often include talking through present problems, building skills for emotion regulation, and testing new ways of handling old family roles.

Eliana uses several evidence-based methods to guide her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people in clarifying values and taking committed action when emotions are strong. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense feelings and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

She also draws on Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused approaches to pay attention to how feelings get expressed in relationships and to strengthen emotional awareness. Over time she encourages small experiments - trying different responses to family patterns and noticing what changes. The emphasis is on clear tools and realistic practice rather than abstract concepts.

For someone noticing old family roles still shaping the present, she helps unpack those patterns. The work is practical: identify patterns, try alternatives, and reflect on what helps. If you read Spanish, sessions can be conducted in that language.

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions

Eliana commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT involves clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings appear; it can be useful for people stuck between what they want and what their family expectations taught them. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which helps with anxiety, depression, and attention-related difficulties.

She also integrates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete emotion-regulation and interpersonal skills when reactions feel intense. The therapist and client work together to decide which approach, or mix of approaches, fits best for the client's goals and situation. Figuring out the right method is treated as a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all decision.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commuting time. If Spanish is preferred the therapist can conduct sessions in that language. The practical aim is to help clients apply therapeutic tools to everyday life and to try new ways of responding to long-standing family patterns.
