About Elisa

Elisa Geraci - Schoenberg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 10 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and dating concerns, self-esteem, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English.

She has worked with people facing maternal and postpartum coping, motivation challenges, and issues that come with aging. Her background includes a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Nevada with a minor in Cultural Anthropology and a Master of Social Work from the University of California, Los Angeles. She completed her LCSW while working at UCLA Medical Center.

Elisa describes her style as direct, accepting, and flexible. She adapts conversation and plans to what the client needs and will pivot approaches if something is not working. In session she addresses specific problems, helps set practical goals, and talks through ways to manage symptoms day to day.

She supports parents and others dealing with postpartum coping and the stress that often follows major life transitions. For relationship and dating concerns she works on communication patterns and confidence-building exercises. When anxiety or depression is present she focuses on skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

People who prefer straightforward feedback and a flexible plan may find her approach useful. To begin, follow the platform prompts to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. If you need confirmation of current session formats, verify options before booking.

How evidence-based techniques shape online sessions

Elisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address presenting problems in a practical way. One approach focuses on teaching coping and regulation skills for anxiety and stress. This involves learning short exercises and routines clients can use during high-stress moments to reduce symptoms and regain focus.

Another common strand is work on behavioral activation for depression and low motivation. That method breaks tasks into small, manageable steps and tracks progress to rebuild routine and confidence. These practices are concrete and aim to change daily behavior patterns that maintain low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through which techniques fit a person's goals and preferences, and they will adjust methods if something isn't helping. This is a collaborative process that emphasizes practical problem solving.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings, reduce screen time with audio-only options when available, or schedule sessions around work and caregiving demands. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises to the online setting so sessions focus on useful skills and clear next steps.
