Eli Manata Sloan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
About Eli
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.
