Elisa Helena Levy Fleury
Experienced counsellor blending creativity and mindfulness
About Elisa
Elisa Helena Levy Fleury is a counsellor with four decades of experience. She blends talking therapies with creative and reflective methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship worries and life transitions. She works in English, Italian and Portuguese and provides one-to-one support and life and career mentoring.
Elisa draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred listening so people feel heard and understood.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are offered when helpful to build calm and awareness. Her background includes long experience in counselling and human resources, and since 2008 a focus on biographical counselling and transpersonal art therapy. That combination means practical problem-solving alongside creative ways to access feelings and memories.
Sessions are tailored to each person. Elisa adapts her approach to fit what someone needs that day - sometimes short solution-focused steps, other times deeper psychodynamic reflection. She also offers mentoring for life and career questions.
Her work addresses a wide range of concerns, including grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, eating difficulties, parenting strain, anger, and issues around identity such as abandonment or codependency. She aims to help people find clearer choices and greater steadiness in everyday life.

Online approaches and how they work for you
Elisa uses client-centred listening to place the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That approach focuses on empathetic listening and follows the client's pace, which helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings or life decisions.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand patterns in relationships. This helps when patterns from earlier life affect current friendships, partnerships or parenting. Mindfulness techniques are offered as practical tools to reduce anxiety and improve attention to the present moment.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Elisa will discuss options with each person and together they will decide which methods fit best. That collaborative process means the plan can change as goals evolve.
Online delivery offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for simpler check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief reflections, ongoing check-ins or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
