About Elena
Elena Ramos is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with eight years of experience who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, trauma, and relationship struggles. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people feel heard and can talk through what matters most to them. Elena encourages honesty and works alongside clients to find practical steps forward.
Elena draws on several therapy methods to match each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions and connection. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new actions. Client-Centered Therapy guides her to follow each person’s priorities.
Her background includes school social work, outpatient adult therapy, behavioral health in high schools, and domestic violence counseling. Those roles shaped her skills in handling crisis moments, safety planning, and steady support over time. She brings practical tools for stress management and coping with life changes.
Sessions often focus on small, usable steps: naming a feeling, testing a different behavior, or changing how someone talks to themselves. Elena highlights strengths and helps people build on them. She also works with issues like ADHD, compassion fatigue, self-harm thoughts, grief, and problems with communication.
Elena practices in New Mexico and offers sessions in English. She aims for a straightforward, down-to-earth approach so people can get the help they need without extra jargon.

Online support
How Elena’s approaches fit into online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and understand core emotions and how those feelings affect relationships and personal choices. In online sessions this can mean talking through emotional patterns and trying new ways to respond to strong feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches noticing hard thoughts without getting stuck in them and committing to small actions that match personal values; it suits worries, life changes, and ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood, useful for practical coping and symptom relief.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to goals and preferences and suggest which methods might help most. That choice is collaborative and can shift as needs change during treatment.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for emotion-focused work. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins or when someone prefers typing. These options make it easier to keep consistent appointments and to use therapy in day-to-day life.
