About Edili
Edili Maldonado is a licensed clinician based in New York who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 12 years of clinical experience to conversations that can feel heavy or overwhelming. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental, focused on practical steps people can use right away.
She draws on several methods to match what each person needs. That can include Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and strong emotions, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking, and acceptance-based tools when coping with painful feelings.
Background and approach
Edili combines these with DBT skills and client-centered listening when useful. Sessions are meant to be collaborative. She aims to help people name what’s happening, try small experiments, and build skills for everyday life.
That can mean learning ways to manage panic, navigate grief, set boundaries, or handle caregiver stress. Edili treats mood and anxiety conditions, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD-related struggles, and trauma or abuse recovery among other issues listed in her practice focus. She emphasizes respect, compassion, and avoiding labels so people can feel understood and safe enough to change.
Practical matters are part of the work. She uses coaching-style steps when helpful, supports career and parenting concerns, and works with multicultural issues and the strain of caregiving. People who choose her can expect straightforward language, concrete tools, and steady support as they work toward change.

Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Edili commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful patterns in close relationships and strong emotions. That approach can help when struggling with intimacy, attachment worries, or recurring emotional reactions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another tool she uses to help people notice painful thoughts or feelings and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions.She mixes these with client-centered listening so the work fits each person. Finding the right approach is part of the process and she will collaborate with each client to choose what feels most helpful. Goals, preferences, and daily life demands guide which methods are prioritized during sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for emotion-focused work and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Text and live chat are useful for quick reflections, in-between support, and for people who prefer written exchanges. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people fit therapy into busy routines.
