If you’re not sure where to start, that’s okay. You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin.
I’m Eli Manata, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering warm, trauma-informed, shame-free therapy. I work with adults navigating sexual health, intimacy, gambling-related harm, and substance use, along with the anxiety, trauma, shame, grief, and relationship strain that often come with them.
For gambling-related harm, we can look at urges, chasing losses, secrecy, financial stress, and how they affect partners and loved ones. Together, we can build practical safeguards, including a personalized recurrence-prevention plan.
My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and meets you where you are. I draw on harm reduction, Motivational Interviewing, CBT, parts-informed work, and expressive arts, and I’m knowledgeable about 12-step approaches. Everything is guided by your goals and pace. Your culture, identities, and choices matter here, and my work is LGBTQIA+-affirming and gender-affirming.
Whether things have just started to slip or have unraveled to a place that feels impossible to come back from, recovery, reconnection, and repair are possible.
Start where you are. Book a session, and let’s begin.
Virtual therapy for individuals in Florida. Multilingual sessions in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
