Getting to know Eliluz Pantoja

I create a compassionate, safe space where clients feel heard and supported. I use CBT and ACT with a trauma-informed approach to help clients navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and grow. I also work with clients managing OCD using ERP therapy. Therapy with me is collaborative—I aim to help you understand your emotions, honor your strengths, and move through change with compassion and authenticity.

What should a new client know about working with you?

A new client should know that I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to share your thoughts and emotions. Therapy with me is collaborative—I’ll listen, guide, and support you as you work through life’s challenges at your own pace. I integrate CBT and ACT through a trauma-informed lens, and I can also provide specialized support for OCD using ERP therapy. My goal is to help you build awareness, resilience, and emotional flexibility while honoring your unique story. Change can be challenging, but you won’t have to navigate it alone.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I start by creating a safe, supportive space where we explore your challenges and goals. Using CBT and ACT through a trauma-informed approach, I tailor strategies to your needs, including ERP therapy for OCD when appropriate. Together, we focus on building self-awareness, resilience, and practical skills so you can navigate life’s challenges with confidence and support.
