About Elisa

Elisa Helena Levy Fleury works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem, life changes and addiction using a mix of counselling, mentoring and art-based methods. She is a BACP counsellor and has more than 40 years of experience in counselling and human resources.

Elisa offers one-to-one sessions and life or career mentoring. She brings Biographical Counselling and Transpersonal Art Therapy into her practice while also using mindfulness and client-centred ideas. Sessions are adapted to what each person brings to the room and to their current goals.

She has a multicultural background and speaks English, Portuguese and Italian. That experience informs how she works with people who have immigration or cultural adjustment concerns. Her practice has included work with grief, trauma and abuse, eating issues, addiction and career transition.

Meditation is part of her personal practice and she can share meditative techniques during sessions when they are helpful. Elisa notes these techniques often support greater awareness and steadier mood for people who practise them.

Her approach also pays attention to attachment and family of origin issues, communication problems, codependency and feelings of emptiness or abandonment. She uses solution-focused and psychodynamic ideas to help people identify immediate steps and to look at longer-standing patterns.

Practical themes such as parenting strain, divorce and separation, ageing and career decisions are worked through alongside emotional concerns like guilt, shame and isolation. Sessions include talking, reflective exercises and art-based activity where appropriate.

How Elisa uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Elisa draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current feelings and patterns, which can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and attachment issues. She also uses client-centred counselling which focuses on the person’s own experience and supports them to find their own solutions and clarity. Mindfulness-based techniques are offered as practical exercises to help with anxiety, mood regulation and staying present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elisa will discuss goals and preferences with each person and agree together which ideas and techniques to use. That collaborative process helps shape ongoing sessions and any use of art-based exercises or meditation.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins where helpful. It also lets clients combine talking therapy with guided mindfulness and art-based tasks between sessions to support steady progress.
