About Elyse

Elyse Bloch is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 24 years of counseling experience who blends practical skill with compassionate care. She brings deep, varied clinical experience across domestic violence, childhood neglect and dependence, adoption work, developmental disabilities in youth and adults, addictions, adolescent conduct disorder, a range of mental health disorders, and veterans' concerns. Her practice supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family struggles, parenting and caregiver challenges, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD and bipolar conditions, and other life transitions.

Elyse practices from an eclectic, client-focused stance, adapting methods to fit each person rather than forcing a single model. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - including CBT for insomnia - when structured skill-building and thought-behavior work can help. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy for Depression, mindfulness techniques, and narrative approaches to address emotion regulation, interpersonal patterns, and the stories people tell about their lives.

Her goal is to partner with individuals at a comfortable pace to address current stressors or heal from past trauma that affects daily functioning. Elyse emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies to build a meaningful today and a more hopeful tomorrow.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Elyse Bloch integrates several evidence-informed approaches that translate well to online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify goals and values - this approach is useful for building trust and autonomy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is practical for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many day-to-day difficulties because it teaches concrete skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship patterns, and impulse-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Elyse reviews a person's needs, preferences, and goals and tailors techniques over time so therapy remains responsive and relevant. Clients and the therapist work together to adjust methods as progress unfolds.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to attend consistently and fit therapy into busy lives. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow people to receive care from familiar surroundings while working with licensed professionals who adapt proven approaches to remote formats.
