About Jeffrey

Jeffrey Elliott brings 24 years of counseling experience to his work and holds LCPC and LPCC credentials.

Background and approach

He practices in Minnesota and draws on a range of therapeutic methods to help clients navigate persistent stress, anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, grief, relationship difficulties, anger, intimacy issues, career challenges, and other life changes. He emphasizes listening first, working to understand each person's unique experience before identifying practical pathways forward.

His style blends client-centered attention with goal-oriented techniques so sessions balance empathy with action. Jeffrey often uses cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients spot unhelpful thinking patterns and motivational interviewing to support readiness for change.

He aims to collaborate with each person on realistic steps that move toward resolution rather than prescribe one fixed approach. Jeffrey recognizes the effort involved in seeking therapy and makes space for varied life circumstances and emotional responses.

Prospective clients can expect a respectful, steady presence and a focus on identifying workable solutions tailored to their priorities and pace.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online CBT sessions typically include collaborative exercises and practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and helping clients lead the pace and focus of the work, providing a respectful space where people can explore feelings and clarify goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist will help assess needs, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what proves most helpful, working with the client's preferences and goals to shape the plan.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver structured CBT exercises, motivational interviewing conversations, or client-centered support without requiring in-person visits, improving accessibility for people with different routines and obligations.
