About Eduardo
Eduardo Paez is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with 14 years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
He focuses on helping people navigate addictions, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges, while also attending to attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication difficulties, questions about life purpose, and building self-love. Eduardo approaches therapy from a perspective that honors each person as the expert of their own life.
He combines client-centered listening with practical strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing to support clearer thinking and behavior change. He also integrates elements of the Gottman Method and mindfulness to strengthen communication and emotional regulation in relationships.
Clients can expect a collaborative style that validates strengths and builds actionable skills. Eduardo frames therapy as a partnership aimed at practical progress and personal growth, offering steady guidance as clients explore goals and experiment with new ways of relating to themselves and others.
How evidence-based methods translate to online support
Eduardo often uses cognitive behavioral methods to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop more effective behaviors, which can be useful for addressing addictions, anxiety, and patterns that affect relationships. He also practices client-centered therapy, offering empathic listening and validation so clients feel heard while they explore goals and make changes. The Gottman Method is another tool he draws on to improve communication and conflict management in partnerships by teaching practical skills for connection and repair.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Eduardo works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress is made.
Online therapy with him is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to maintain regular sessions, access support from home, and apply skills between meetings while working around day-to-day commitments.
