About Elyse
Elyse Bloch is a licensed independent social worker with 24 years of clinical experience. She practices in Ohio and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, parenting concerns, and other life challenges. Elyse uses straightforward language and practical strategies in sessions so parents can apply ideas quickly at home.
Her background includes work with domestic violence, childhood neglect and dependence, adoption-related concerns, developmental disabilities across age groups, and addictions.
Background and approach
That history gives her a broad view of how past events shape day-to-day coping and family roles. She draws on diverse clinical settings to match interventions to each person’s needs. Elyse favors a collaborative style.
She listens first, then helps people set concrete goals and small, manageable steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a common starting point, especially for mood, sleep, and anxiety problems, but she adapts methods to what fits the person sitting across from her. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to build better emotion regulation and reduce reactivity.
Motivational Interviewing is included when people need help finding the motivation to change habits around substances or routines. Narrative techniques help people reframe difficult experiences and see new options. Sessions move at a client’s pace and focus on usable tools for daily life.
Elyse supports parents dealing with the strain of childcare, sleep problems, and behavior concerns, helping them translate therapy into practical changes. She works with English-speaking adults in Ohio and via online formats.

How Elyse’s approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and perspective. It means the therapist follows the client’s lead, asks questions, and helps identify what matters most. This approach supports parents who need concrete, realistic plans that fit their daily routines.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In practice it involves setting small experiments, changing habits, and learning new ways to respond to anxiety, low mood, or sleep problems. CBT is useful for common parenting concerns like managing stress and improving sleep for both caregivers and children.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing strong emotions and reducing reactivity. Short skills coaching around distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clear communication can make daily life feel more manageable when tensions rise.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Elyse will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan over time. She emphasizes practical tools and steady progress rather than one-size-fits-all plans.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and skill teaching. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging fit short check-ins, homework review, or quick coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and varied daily demands.
