About Yaritza
Yaritza Pineiro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who speaks English and Spanish. She brings seven years of experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, addiction, mood challenges, and parenting concerns. She uses a practical, down-to-earth style in sessions.
Yaritza focuses on clear goals and small steps that fit into everyday life. She blends talk therapy with tools people can try between meetings to ease symptoms and improve coping. Her background includes work in mental health and addiction settings where she supported people facing depression, bipolar symptoms, substance use, trauma, and grief.
Background and approach
That experience shaped how she responds to crises and ongoing struggles with calm, steady guidance. Yaritza integrates several approaches depending on what a person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used when trauma memories are getting in the way. She also leans on client-centered and motivational techniques to build collaboration and keep goals realistic.
Parents often seek her support for parenting stress, communication problems, and balancing mental health with caregiving. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and can be scheduled around a client's routine.

How online approaches fit your needs
Yaritza commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and handling stressful moments without harmful actions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to make sessions collaborative and respectful of each person's pace. That approach prioritizes listening and helping clients set goals that matter to them. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress happens.
Online therapy with her offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets you see facial cues and work through material in real time. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can serve as brief check-ins or ongoing written support between longer sessions.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or parenting schedules and help maintain continuity when life gets busy. The therapist will help choose the format and approach that best match a client's goals and daily routine.
