I am an experienced counsellor and transpersonal art therapist, offering a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space to support you in your therapeutic process. I conduct individual as well as life and career mentoring.
As a Therapist and Mentor, I facilitate an exploration into a more resourceful and more meaningful way of living by incorporating a variety of approaches into my work. Each therapy, or mentoring session is tailor-made to suit each individual’s needs.
Coming from a multicultural background, fluent in English and Portuguese , I have a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by members of the expat community. With more than 40 years of experience working with counselling and human resources, since 2008 I have been focusing my therapeutic work and research on Biographical Counselling and Transpersonal Art Therapy.
Moreover, I have been meditating for many years and I can share these tools during my sessions if necessary. In my practice I can see that it helps to promote more awareness, a sense of connection and belonging. As a result, a decrease in anxiety and mood swings are also observed.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Elisa Helena Levy Fleury. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Elisa is a wonderful therapist. Thanks to her I finally feel more confident and strong to set and exercise boundaries and speak my truth without fearing how others will react. I feel more in control and no longer a victim, or a part, of an unhealthy toxic relationship and family dynamics.
Elisa has a very warm and open personality. She was always fully present and engaged in our sessions. I greatly appreciated her ability to remember our previous conversations and her willingness to repeat things, as and when needed.
I felt she can truly relate to my situation and that she can understand what I was going through.
I'll be forever grateful for her help and I cannot recommend her enough!
Ultimately the greatest tool Elisa taught me was to be present.

I can’t recommend Elisa enough - I have connected with her much more than any other therapist I have had. She is so lovely and friendly but also has an incredible memory and really seems to understand my situation, personality, and needs. She is extremely knowledgeable and uses all of her research and experience in each session to give practical tips and exercises which have helped me enormously. I always feel so much better after our sessions and am looking forward to working with her long term.

I have only had two sessions with Elisa, but already I sense that the Biography therapy is going to be a wonderful fit for me. I am excited to go deeper and connect with my creativity, and I feel that with Elisa's experience and expertise I will be in good hands.

Elisa has been fantastic in helping me through my journey of inner healing and becoming more in tune with myself and intuiotion. She helped me with my perspective when going through difficult life events and guided me into a direction of self healing.
She has been honest throughout the sessions which have allowed me to tackle my self doubts, increase my self awareness and taught me practices which I have adopted into daily life. Every day has been better and better.
