About Me

WHO I AM

Helping You Move From Overwhelm to Empowerment

Therapy for Anxiety, Depression, OCD, Trauma, and Relationship Struggles

I’m Eliana Bonaguro, a licensed psychotherapist offering telehealth therapy in Florida and New York. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, and mood-related challenges, and I provide trauma-informed care for those feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

My clients are often navigating intense inner worlds—persistent worry, self-doubt, panic, low mood, or relationship stress. I help them untangle those experiences and develop healthier ways to think, feel, and connect.

 

About Me

I’m a therapist who values depth, empathy, and practical tools. I bring advanced training from the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and years of experience helping people reclaim their calm, confidence, and clarity.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based methods. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, intrusive thoughts, low self-worth, or communication patterns, I meet you where you are—with warmth and curiosity.

If you’re ready to explore what’s keeping you stuck and take intentional steps toward change, I’d be honored to support you.
