About Eleni

Eleni Loukaides is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado. She draws on five years of clinical experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, anger, and depression. She speaks English and Greek and aims to create a straightforward, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most to them.

Eleni uses a mix of practical therapy methods to support change. She works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new choices.

Background and approach

She also uses Attachment-Based approaches to look at how past relationships shape present reactions. In session she focuses on clear skills and real-life steps. That can mean practicing communication, learning ways to reduce strong emotions, or building routines that make daily life easier.

She also helps clients process transitions and develop coping strategies for ongoing challenges. Her extra focus areas include concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment struggles, blended family problems, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, codependency, and substance-related concerns. She addresses specific topics like body image, commitment worries, communication problems, control issues, dissociation, and disruptive mood patterns.

Eleni describes the work as collaborative. She helps people set goals and tries techniques that fit each person’s situation. The aim is clearer thinking, more workable habits, and greater confidence in facing life’s changes.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match their values. This approach can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and supports building healthier ways of relating and managing emotion.

Eleni takes a collaborative approach to choosing methods. She will work with each person to figure out which combination of ACT, CBT, or attachment work fits their goals and preferences. That helps ensure the plan matches real-life needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier for short check-ins, and live chat or text messaging work well for quick check-ins and ongoing support. These options make it easier to keep momentum between sessions and to practice skills in everyday settings.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
