About Eleni

Eleni Speropulos is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, addiction, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She also supports those coping with trauma, parenting challenges, sleep problems, and life transitions. Eleni presents herself in a calm, warm way that aims to make tough conversations feel manageable.

Her sessions are interactive and focused on the person's needs. She listens, asks practical questions, and helps people build skills they can use between meetings. Eleni values each person having a real voice in planning their care and works alongside them to set goals.

Clinically she draws on attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered principles to address patterns that keep people stuck. She also uses elements from dialectical behavior and existential approaches when those fit a person’s experience. The mix is chosen to match the problem and the person, not to follow one fixed model.

With ten years of experience as an Oregon LMFT, Eleni has worked with a wide range of issues including abandonment concerns, adoption and foster care history, attachment difficulties, body image, codependency, domestic violence, and substance use. That background informs a practical focus on skills, safety, and clearer communication.

People who meet with Eleni can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space to explore painful events and build better ways of coping. She emphasizes skill-building, emotional understanding, and step-by-step progress toward goals.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, and it helps people understand why they react the way they do in close relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, low mood, or problematic habits. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports their self-directed goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Eleni will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the mix over time as progress and challenges emerge.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time that otherwise interrupts the day. It also can let people practice new skills in the settings where they live. Licensed professionals often use these benefits to help therapy feel more practical and sustainable.
