Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Auben Elliott uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. These approach elements often focus on teaching coping strategies, problem-solving skills, and ways to reframe unhelpful patterns so daily functioning and wellbeing improve over time. She also applies trauma-informed methods to address trauma and abuse, offering careful, paced support to process difficult experiences and reduce their ongoing impact.

Because relationships and attachment patterns are central to many presenting issues, Auben works with clients on relational and attachment-related concerns - exploring family of origin dynamics, patterns of codependency or commitment difficulties, and ways to strengthen connection and boundaries. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Auben partners with each client to identify goals, assess progress, and adjust techniques so the work aligns with the client s needs and preferences.

Online therapy with Auben can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit work and family schedules, mobility needs, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to access consistent support and integrate therapeutic work into everyday life.
