About Eliza
Eliza Marcus is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 30 years of experience based in New York. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. She also supports those facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach is straightforward and respectful. Eliza adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings.
She listens for patterns that contribute to problems like impulsivity, control issues, or feelings of emptiness.
Background and approach
Work often includes small experiments and clear goals to test what helps. Her background includes long experience with family problems, blended family issues, and caregiver stress. She also has experience supporting clients affected by trauma and abuse, immigration concerns, and first responder stress.
This experience informs how she frames coping strategies and communication skills. Eliza uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered practice to guide sessions. She helps with thinking habits, behavior changes, and values-based choices rather than offering quick fixes.
Solution-focused ideas are used to build practical plans and short-term goals when appropriate. People who do best with her tend to want clear steps and a calm listener who will hold them accountable. She balances empathy with practical problem solving.
If someone wants help with anger, self-esteem, career decisions, or ADHD-related challenges, her work is aimed at finding workable ways forward.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Eliza commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. CBT focuses on recognizing thinking patterns and testing changes in behavior to reduce anxiety, depression, and impulsive reactions. Finding the right approach is something she treats as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try approaches that fit the person's needs, and adjust methods as progress is tracked. Clients help shape which tools are used and how quickly the work moves from ideas to practical steps. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer discussions, while phone can work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework follow-up, or when written reflection fits someones style. These options make it easier to fit support into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.Questions people ask about Eliza
