Eliana Gassette , LMHC

Eliana Gassette is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor with 13 years of clinical experience offering bilingual care in English and Spanish. As an LMHC - which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor and indicates formal training and state licensure to provide mental health services - she focuses on helping people navigate challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, motivation and confidence struggles, and major life transitions. Her practice also includes work with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, stress and compassion fatigue, and a range of relationship and family issues.

She approaches each person as the expert on their own life, building on individual strengths to address the problems that interfere with daily functioning and well-being. Clients can expect a collaborative, strengths-based process that emphasizes practical coping skills alongside deeper self-exploration. Eliana blends evidence-based techniques with empathic listening to help clients clarify values, manage emotions, and create sustainable change.

Fluent in both English and Spanish, she is prepared to work with diverse backgrounds and with international clients. Her goal is to guide people toward a more fulfilling and resilient life while respecting each person’s story and pace of progress.

Approaches That Translate Well to Remote Care

Eliana draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify what matters most to them and develop practical ways to move toward those values even when thoughts or feelings feel overwhelming. ACT can be useful for people facing anxiety, depression, or major life changes who want strategies for living in line with their priorities rather than being led by difficult emotions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT offers concrete tools for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression, improving motivation, and building problem-solving skills that can reduce distress and increase day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Eliana works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors methods so the work feels relevant and manageable. Clients are invited to experiment and give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time.

Online sessions using video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for people in different locations, including international clients. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different formats to find what fits best, and access licensed professionals and therapists without the limits of travel or local office hours.
