Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well to Online Care

Eliza Mendoza, LCSW, incorporates approaches that can be especially practical in online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where clients can explore emotions at their own pace, which can be helpful during life transitions, grief, or periods of increased stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts and behaviors and practicing new responses that better align with a client’s goals. Many people find CBT useful when they want structured strategies for anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, or coping with everyday pressures.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck in conflict, or unsure how to communicate needs in relationships and family systems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Eliza Mendoza collaborates with each client to identify what fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. The focus can shift over time as circumstances change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to get support in a format that fits busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or changing routines.
