About Eli

Eli Selkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California with 18 years of professional experience. Eli specializes in supporting people navigating stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, and managing mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and depression. Known for a calm and compassionate approach, Eli meets each person with respect and sensitivity and adapts the conversation and treatment plan to fit individual needs and circumstances.

Taking the first step toward change can take courage, and Eli provides consistent support throughout that process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Eli Selkin commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support clients in online settings. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and learning practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward a meaningful life - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and coping with loss. CBT involves identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors through structured techniques and skill building - it often helps with depression, anxiety, and mood regulation.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Eli collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they evaluate which methods feel most useful and adjust the plan over time to maximize benefit.

Online therapy with Eli is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and life situations. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel, helping therapy fit more smoothly into daily life.
