About Eliza

Eliza Marcus is a licensed mental health counselor in New York with 30 years of professional experience. She draws on a long career helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and family-related challenges, and she adapts her work to each person’s particular situation.

Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion as foundational to effective collaboration. Clients can expect a tailored process in which conversation and planned strategies are shaped to fit their goals, whether addressing parenting and family dynamics, relationship and intimacy issues, or struggles with self-esteem, career choices, or attention-related concerns.

She also brings experience with trauma, compassion fatigue, eating and anger concerns, and a wide range of additional focus areas such as caregiving stress, blended family issues, and immigration-related challenges. Marcus aims to support and empower people to take steps toward more satisfying and resilient lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Eliza Marcus integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into her online work, offering concrete tools and values-based strategies tailored to each person. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through behavioral experiments to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depressive patterns. ACT emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that build a meaningful life.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will work with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches as appropriate. Clients are invited to discuss what feels most useful so plans evolve alongside progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care across busy weeks and to choose the format that best supports active work on symptoms, relationships, or life transitions.
