About Eleni
Eleni Speropulos is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Oregon who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship strain.

Her sessions are relaxed and interactive. She listens closely and works with each person to set clear, achievable goals.
Background and approach
People learn skills to cope with strong emotions, improve communication, and handle change more calmly. Eleni blends several approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior strategies add skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. She believes clients should have a voice in their care, so plans are created together.
Therapy includes practical tools, short exercises, and chances to talk through difficult memories or current pressures. Sessions aim to build safety, self-awareness, and problem-solving skills. With about ten years of experience, Eleni works with adults on a variety of life challenges.
She brings patience and clear guidance, and she encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Therapy approaches you can use online
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people understand why they react a certain way with others. It can be useful for relationship stress, abandonment concerns, and attachment wounds. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful habits. It is often used for worry, mood concerns, and sleep issues. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and handling crises, including distress tolerance and emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Then she will tailor methods and exercises to fit each person’s needs so therapy stays collaborative and goal-oriented.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use written tools when that format fits their routine. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain steady progress.
