About Elyse
Dr. Elyse Schwartz Myers is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 23 years of clinical experience. She works with adults and adolescents on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and self-esteem. She also helps with parenting challenges, career concerns, ADHD, and LGBT-related stressors.
She has a doctorate in clinical psychology and long experience treating emotional and behavioral difficulties across the lifespan. Over two decades she has seen a wide range of concerns from mood disorders to trauma and disruptive mood issues. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and domestic violence survivors.
Her practice uses a mix of approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work, alongside Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses in everyday life.
In sessions she helps people break down problems into concrete steps. That might mean tracking thought patterns, practicing specific coping skills, or addressing relationship patterns tied to attachment. Sessions aim to be practical and action-oriented so clients can try new ways of responding between meetings.
She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Please confirm current session options before booking.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Dr. Myers commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice thought patterns and try concrete behavior changes. CBT sessions often focus on specific skills such as mood monitoring, thought records, and behavioral experiments that can be practiced between meetings.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. That work helps identify interaction styles and develop different ways of relating in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods based on what seems most useful. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to prioritize and how to sequence them over sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or accommodating different scheduling needs. Licensed professionals can use these options to help clients practice skills in real-life contexts and track progress between meetings.
