About Elisa
Elisa Carlino is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She also supports parents dealing with parenting challenges, intimacy and self-esteem struggles, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Elisa has 12 years of practice and speaks English and Italian.
Elisa uses straightforward talk and practical tools. She aims to be a calm, steady presence who listens first and then teaches skills you can use outside sessions.
Background and approach
Many clients move forward with breathing and mindfulness exercises, values-based goals, and step-by-step behavior changes. Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-informed work, and cognitive-behavioral techniques. That mix helps people manage overwhelming thoughts, improve close connections, and change habits that get in the way of daily life.
Motivational interviewing is used when people want to find their own motivation to shift patterns. Elisa has worked in clinics, hospitals, and schools, and she brings that variety into online sessions. She focuses on concrete strategies for coping with grief, chronic illness, adoption and foster care issues, and caregiver stress.
She also addresses ADHD, body image, and communication problems in practical ways. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or messaging, and Elisa works with international clients as well as people in New York. She encourages a collaborative process and helps each person set realistic, manageable goals.
If you want clear tools and steady support, she offers a practical, compassionate way forward.

Online support
How Elisa’s approaches fit into online therapy
Elisa often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts appear. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with practical experiments and behavior changes. CBT is helpful for managing anxiety, anger, and persistent low mood.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Elisa talks with each person about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities and then adapts methods so they fit the person’s life. That collaborative planning helps keep work focused and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets you use visual cues and longer conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a brief check-in during a busy day, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while still getting steady support.
