About Eli

Eli Sanchez is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Nevada and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 12 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life changes, and also addresses ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, parenting, self-esteem, career, and bipolar challenges.

Eli uses clear, practical methods to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep problems going. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to plan concrete steps clients can try between sessions. Sessions emphasize skills practice, new ways of responding, and checking what works in real life.

He pays attention to attachment patterns and communication problems that make relationships hard. He also works with people facing immigration stress, fatherhood issues, isolation, and guilt or shame, helping them name the patterns that cause pain and testing small changes that shift those patterns.

Eli speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients. He frames therapy as a collaborative process: identifying priorities, trying structured techniques, and adjusting based on what helps. He avoids jargon and keeps explanations direct so people can use tools right away.

Background and approach: Eli’s multicultural background informs how he talks about culture, identity, and family expectations. He blends skills-focused CBT work with DBT strategies for emotion regulation and IFS ideas for understanding internal parts. Over 12 years he has worked with a wide range of concerns and focuses on practical, repeatable steps rather than abstract talk.

CBT, DBT, and parts work in online sessions

CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors through small experiments and practice. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems like impulsivity or low self-esteem.

DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills through step-by-step exercises. It can help with intense emotions, anger, and problems with impulsivity or self-control.

Internal Family Systems helps people describe internal parts that hold painful feelings or protective roles. It can be useful when someone feels stuck by conflicting impulses, shame, or attachment patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps. This is a practical conversation about what methods fit the client’s concerns and preferences.
