Background and approach

Those practices are paired with thoughtful talk so people can make small shifts that matter each day. She brings 13 years of experience in outpatient settings and has worked with a wide age range. Her background includes work in partial hospitalization and in-home care, with a focus on anxiety, sadness, and anger.

Eileen earned undergraduate and master’s degrees from Boston College and has engaged in international service and study experiences. Eileen combines several therapeutic approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral tools, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy.

She also pays attention to physical health and movement as part of emotional care, and she often suggests simple routines clients can try between sessions. She speaks English and Spanish and practices from New Jersey. Eileen aims to help people notice sources of strength and to rekindle a sense of joy in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and helps people take values-based action even when things feel difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thought patterns and teaches practical steps to shift thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy brings attention to how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help people improve trust, safety, and emotional connection in their lives.

Choosing the right fit is part of the work. Eileen explores goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. She partners with each person to try approaches and adjusts what she offers based on what helps most for their situation.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when someone needs less bandwidth or wants a faster check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, coaching-style support, or when writing feels easier. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent during busy schedules or when travel is involved.
