About Yaritza
Yaritza Pineiro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who speaks English and Spanish. She focuses on helping adults and young adults manage stress, anxiety, mood problems, addiction, and relationship concerns. She addresses trauma, grief, parenting strain, and issues around self-esteem in a clear, down-to-earth way.
Yaritza blends practical talk therapy with skills work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and building coping skills.
Background and approach
When trauma is in the picture, she uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, alongside other approaches to help process painful memories. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to support grounding and stress reduction. Her background includes seven years working in mental health and addiction settings.
That experience informs straightforward strategies for managing drug and alcohol concerns, mood disorders, panic attacks, and self-harm urges. Sessions are practical and collaborative. Yaritza works with each person to set goals and pick tools that fit day-to-day life.
She aims to help people build skills they can use between sessions to handle difficult moments and move toward steadier functioning.

Online support
EMDR, CBT, and skills work available online
Yaritza uses a mix of EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and then practice different responses to change them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication skills to reduce crisis moments and strengthen coping. EMDR is used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact when trauma is involved.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist reviews your concerns and goals, then suggests approaches that match what you want to work on. You and the therapist adjust methods over time based on what feels helpful and what fits your daily life.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation for deeper work and skills practice. Phone sessions or live chat can be easier when video is not possible or when short check-ins fit a busy day. Text-based messaging supports ongoing connection between sessions and can help with quick coping reminders and homework. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while still working with licensed professionals.
