About Elisha
Elisha Farley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania with 18 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and depression. She also works with people facing addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Elisha uses clear, practical approaches in sessions. She listens to what feels most pressing, then helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions include concrete strategies as well as reflective conversation to test what changes help in day-to-day life.
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and mindfulness methods. That means sessions mix goal-focused exercises with space to reflect on values and experience. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques are also available to explore readiness for change and the stories people tell about themselves.
Elisha often addresses communication problems, parenting concerns, workplace stress, and life transitions like divorce or pregnancy. She uses short, practical tools for coping and specific steps for improving interactions and routines. When substance use or bipolar mood concerns appear, she addresses those issues alongside coping and safety planning.
People who meet with her can expect straightforward feedback, tasks to try between sessions, and regular check-ins about progress. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site process to match and schedule a first session. This helps clarify goals and the initial plan for work together.
How her approaches translate to online work
Elisha commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms such as anxiety. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can clarify goals and values in their own words.She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice stress responses and to practice brief attention exercises. These methods can help with worry, relationship reactivity, and managing urges linked to substance use or other behaviors. Choosing which approaches to use is collaborative; she helps clients try options and adjusts the plan based on what fits their goals and daily life.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how a first meeting will be arranged. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and let people use audio-only or lower-bandwidth options when needed. Elisha will discuss practical arrangements and which therapeutic tools are most useful for remote sessions during the initial meeting.
