Eli Manata Sloan

Hi, I'm Eli Manata, a Florida Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering trauma-informed virtual therapy in Florida for adults, couples, and loved ones. I support clients navigating gambling-related harm, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, intimacy, and relationship concerns. I am pursuing International Certified Gambling Counselor (ICGC) certification while completing doctoral studies in Expressive Therapies. Sessions are available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French.

My approach is collaborative, affirming, heart-centered, strengths-based, and grounded in harm reduction. I integrate CBT, Motivational Interviewing, IFS-informed parts work, expressive arts, mindfulness-informed practice, and recurrence-prevention planning. I am Gottman Method Couples Therapy Levels 1 and 2 trained, knowledgeable about 12-step programs, and respectful of multiple pathways to recovery.

We will begin with what matters most to you and identify your strengths, goals, and practical safeguards, and next steps. Couples and loved ones can explore trust, boundaries, communication, financial concerns, and relationship repair. You can expect a compassionate, judgment-free space that respects your choices, readiness, and pace. Start where you are. Book a session, and let’s begin.
