About Eleni

Eleni Speropulos, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Oregon, has ten years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, relationship concerns, parenting strain, sleep trouble, anger, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, and LGBT issues. Her stated approach blends attachment-based work, client-centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), existential ideas, and trauma-focused techniques. She prefers a relaxed, interactive style and involves clients in planning their care.

Speropulos uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape behaviors and expectations. She draws on CBT to help people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. DBT skills are used when emotion regulation and coping strategies are a focus. Her client-centered stance means the person’s perspective guides the process.

She has specific experience with abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, blended family challenges, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and commitment problems, and substance use issues. She also notes work with survivals of domestic violence and other trauma.

Sessions aim to mix practical skills with reflective conversation. Clients can expect to practice new ways of responding to stress and to talk through relationship patterns. The therapist emphasizes collaboration and invites clients to shape the goals and pace of treatment.

Speropulos works in Oregon and conducts therapy in English. Her listing indicates a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how those affect feelings and behavior. Online sessions can use this approach to look at past and present relationship patterns and to practice new ways of connecting.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the client’s perspective. The therapist follows the client’s lead, listens closely, and helps the person name goals and preferences for work together.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In virtual sessions this looks like identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying alternative responses, and practicing new skills between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate to decide which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Confirm the session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. The practice notes a subscription payment model that can be canceled at any time. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about specific session options when you complete the matching questionnaire.
