About Yaritza
Yaritza Pineiro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who speaks English and Spanish. She uses clear, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, mood changes, and relationship concerns. She draws on client-centered work to make sessions feel collaborative and respectful.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for emotion regulation and managing intense feelings.
How Yaritza works
Yaritza also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, with people who have trauma and persistent distress. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to help with grounding and reducing reactivity. Motivational interviewing supports people facing addiction or who want to make difficult changes.
Her experience includes seven years in mental health and addiction settings, where she worked with young adults and adults. That background informs straightforward strategies for coping with life changes, grief, and low self-esteem. She pays attention to communication problems and supports people navigating relationship and family tensions.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and are grounded in practical steps. Yaritza aims to help each person build skills they can use between sessions and to set achievable goals for change.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Yaritza works with therapy methods that people can use online and in real life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing patterns of thought that make problems worse and practicing different actions to change mood and behavior. It helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and mood swings.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships. It is useful for people who struggle with intense reactions or self-harm urges. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person's own goals and priorities, creating space to explore concerns at a comfortable pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to pick strategies that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts techniques as progress happens.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier with limited bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, school, or parenting demands.
