Therapeutic approaches that fit your life - online

Eliza Mendoza draws from evidence-informed approaches to support concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family stress, and major life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, supportive relationship where the client’s perspective leads the work, helping people feel heard as they sort through emotions and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It can be helpful for identifying unhelpful patterns and building practical coping skills for stress, worry, low mood, and day-to-day overwhelm. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds structured skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and communication, which can be useful when emotions feel intense or relationships feel reactive.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Eliza works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and choose strategies that match the client’s needs and pace, adjusting over time as life changes.

Online therapy can make support easier to access and fit into a busy schedule. Clients can meet with Eliza through video calls or phone sessions, and they can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility between sessions.
