About Elisa
Elisa Helena Levy Fleury is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has worked in counselling and human resources for 40 years and combines therapeutic work with life and career mentoring. Elisa helps people with stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, coping with life changes and many related concerns.
Elisa uses a mix of approaches in her sessions. She draws on attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and family life. She also uses client-centred talking and solution-focused techniques to help people find practical next steps. Her interest in transpersonal art therapy and meditation means she may suggest simple creative exercises or mindfulness practices when they fit a person’s needs.
She has a multicultural background and speaks English, Italian and Portuguese. That experience informs her work with people who have moved countries or feel isolated. Elisa has been focusing on Biographical Counselling and transpersonal art therapy since 2008.
Sessions are described as individual therapy and mentoring for life and career matters. She notes that meditation practices can be shared in sessions to build awareness and reduce anxiety or mood swings. The approach is presented as adaptable, aiming to combine talking therapies with practical tools.
Elisa’s long experience includes roles in counselling and human resources. That background supports work around career questions, family of origin issues, grief, addiction and coping with major life transitions.
How her approaches translate to online work
Elisa draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps when someone wants to understand repeated relationship problems, feelings of abandonment or difficulties with trust. She also uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and following what matters most to the person in front of her. That style supports work on self-esteem, life decisions and emotional coping. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Elisa will explore a person’s needs, goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit. She treats the choice of methods as collaborative, adjusting the balance between talking, practical steps and mindfulness or creative practices as the sessions progress. If you want to use online sessions, check the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study or work and to keep regular check-ins without travel. Some people prefer shorter or audio-only meetings when their day is busy, while others like longer conversations with added mindfulness or creative exercises. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt session content to suit quieter surroundings, limited bandwidth or the need for a quick career check-in.Areas of expertise
