About Eliza
Eliza Marcus is a New York LMHC with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures and broader mental health concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain.
She helps people dealing with family conflict and parenting challenges. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, and ADHD. The list of areas she addresses also includes compassion fatigue and several relational patterns like codependency and jealousy.
Eliza uses approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical conversation and straightforward strategies to manage symptoms and make daily life easier.
Her style centers on respectful, attentive listening and collaborative planning. She works with each person to set short-term steps and realistic goals. Over time she adjusts those steps according to what actually helps.
People who reach out can expect direct talk about the problems they bring, with practical tools and options to try between meetings. Eliza asks about priorities first, then helps shape a plan that fits the person’s work, school, or family routine.
Therapeutic approaches and how online work fits
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small actions even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers concrete techniques to reduce symptoms and change unhelpful routines. These approaches suit problems like worry, low mood, and work or school stress.Finding the right approach is part of the early work together. The therapist will ask about goals, what has helped before, and daily routines to recommend methods to try. Decisions about which approach to use are collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Session arrangements for this therapist are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for check-ins during a work or school break. Some formats use audio only, which can lower bandwidth and avoid camera use; others let people work face to face on screen. Talk with the therapist when scheduling to pick the format that best fits your day and your needs.
