About Eduardo
Eduardo Calatayud is an LMFT licensed in California with 12 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Eduardo works with adults who want clearer thinking and steadier emotions without judgment.
He uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels off. Sessions focus on patterns that cause repeated problems - for example people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or getting stuck around another person’s moods. Eduardo listens for what keeps someone feeling overwhelmed and then helps them try different ways of responding.
His work draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s perspective. He also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for managing intense emotions. Mindfulness and existential approaches appear when people want to find clearer values and meaning after big life changes.
In sessions Eduardo helps people practice concrete skills. That might mean role-playing a boundary conversation, tracking thoughts that fuel anxiety, or using grounding strategies during spikes of anger. He encourages small experiments between sessions so people can test what works in real life.
People who reach out to Eduardo often want more confidence, less reactivity, and clearer relationships. He asks practical questions at the start and focuses on steps a person can use right away.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Eduardo commonly draws on client-centered work to keep the focus on the person’s perspective and on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts. Client-centered work means he listens for what matters most to the client and follows their concerns. CBT involves noticing thought patterns that increase anxiety or reactivity and trying different responses.He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when strong emotions or impulsive behavior are a problem. DBT offers concrete techniques for regulating intense feelings, tolerating distress, and improving communication, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Eduardo treats approach selection as a collaborative effort and will work with each person to decide whether client-centered listening, CBT strategies, DBT skills, or a mix fits best for their goals and preferences.
Please confirm the session formats offered before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow for skills practice in everyday settings without traveling to an office. Therapists and licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to help people maintain consistency and apply new skills between meetings.
