Eleni Speropulos, LMFT

Eleni Speropulos is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Oregon who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, and issues with addiction. She also supports people dealing with sleep troubles, parenting strain, low self-esteem, and life changes. Eleni works with clients who identify as LGBT and with those who have experienced trauma or abuse.

Her style is relaxed, warm, and interactive. Sessions focus on respectful listening and practical steps. Clients are invited to have a clear voice in planning treatment and choosing goals.

Eleni blends several therapy approaches to fit each person’s needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current relationships. She uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior ideas are used where emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

She also brings existential and humanistic perspectives that ask what matters most to the client and how to live with greater meaning. Trauma-informed work is available for people who have experienced abuse or neglect, with attention to safety and pacing.

Over ten years in practice have given her experience with a wide range of concerns from codependency and communication problems to blended family issues and substance use. She aims to provide skills, steady support, and a collaborative plan so people can move toward greater health and fulfillment.

Approaches that guide online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people make different choices in connections and trust. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping the client lead the conversation so goals reflect personal values. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best, based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. That plan can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during a work break or from another convenient location. Some formats use less bandwidth or allow shorter check-ins when a full-length session is not feasible. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively to teach skills, process life changes, and support recovery without requiring in-person visits.
