About Eliza
Eliza Marcus is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 30 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. She also addresses parenting questions and challenges that arise in blended households.
Her background includes long-term work in general mental health counseling. She uses a mix of practical approaches to help people manage symptoms and move past stuck patterns. Sessions focus on clear goals and everyday steps that fit into busy lives.
Eliza tends to use tools from acceptance-based and cognitive approaches alongside client-centered conversation. That means she helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings, test unhelpful thinking, and choose values-based actions. She also draws on solution-focused methods to set short-term targets and measure progress.
People come to her for help with family conflict, loyalty issues that appear in stepfamily situations, and challenges tied to parenting after separation or remarriage. She also supports those dealing with trauma, compassion fatigue, ADHD concerns, and career stress.
Appointments aim to clarify the problem, set manageable goals, and try small experiments between meetings. Eliza explains methods in plain language and checks in about what is working. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions guided by personal values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and decisions that feel stalled. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on testing unhelpful thoughts and trying concrete behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, achievable goals and practical steps to create quick momentum.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick approaches that fit their goals and preferences. That includes checking how each method feels in practice and adjusting plans based on what helps most.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, avoid travel time, or choose shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists generally adapt exercises, homework, and pacing so sessions work for everyday life while keeping focus on measurable progress.
