Raquel Zuniga, MD, LCSW-C

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Access

Raquel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and coping strategies. One common approach is skills-based work that helps clients manage stress and anxiety through short-term, goal-focused exercises and behavioral strategies that improve daily functioning. Another element often used is strengths-based coaching which highlights existing abilities and builds confidence, supporting motivation, career planning, and adjustment to life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Raquel views treatment as a collaborative effort. She works with clients to identify what feels most helpful, adjusting methods to fit individual needs, goals, and personal preferences so the plan evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from varied locations and to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, while allowing therapists and clients to focus on building skills, improving coping, and working toward meaningful goals.
