About Elliott
Elliott Lacki is a Connecticut licensed psychologist with six years of post-licensure experience. He works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, attention concerns such as ADHD, and low self-esteem. He also pays attention to how chronic pain, illness, loneliness, life purpose, and money and financial issues affect day-to-day life.
He uses straightforward, evidence-based methods in sessions. Elliott draws on mindfulness exercises and cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered conversation to help people make practical changes. Sessions focus on concrete skills and clearer thinking, not jargon or long lectures.
He adapts the pace and style to each person. That might mean shorter skill practices one week and deeper problem-solving the next. The aim is to set small, achievable steps that add up over time. Elliott emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and practical support throughout the process.
Outside of work he enjoys weightlifting, biking, and kayaking, and values time with friends and family. Those interests inform a down-to-earth approach in sessions. Elliott frames therapy as collaborative work where the person sets goals and he helps map the path to them.
If you want a straightforward, skills-focused therapist who also listens, he may be a good fit. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details so you know how to get started.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and calm the nervous system. These techniques can help with anxiety, stress, and coping when pain or difficult emotions arise. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to shift behavior and mood. That method is useful for depression, worry, and managing ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Elliott will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. He adjusts the plan over time based on what is helpful, combining short skill sessions with deeper problem-solving as needed.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Confirm current session formats before booking so you know which options are available. Online work can make it simpler to have focused check-ins, practice skills between sessions, and build changes into daily routines without adding long commutes.
