About Edward
Dr. Edward De La Loza is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 23 years of experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and career concerns. He also supports people facing life changes and those wanting coaching around workplace issues and purpose.
He uses clear, structured methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one approach he uses to identify patterns and test new ways of thinking. He also draws on Existential Therapy ideas when questions about life purpose and meaning come up.
Edward draws on a doctorate in education and experience in behavioral health work. He has worked internationally in humanitarian efforts and written about caregiver and hospice topics. His background includes research on youth at risk for suicide and practical work in clinical and community settings.
Sessions focus on small, practical changes that add up over time. He mentions a Seven Dimensions of Transformational Living model he uses alongside evidence-based tools. Expect direct, step-by-step suggestions and homework to try between meetings.
People who come for help often want concrete problem-solving for communication, control issues, and men's issues at work or home. He accepts international clients and conducts work from a perspective of gradual progress rather than quick fixes.
How his CBT and existential work translate online
Dr. De La Loza uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and test practical alternatives. CBT sessions typically focus on clear goals, worksheets or exercises, and steps to try between meetings to change habits that keep problems going.He also draws on Existential Therapy when questions of meaning, purpose, or identity are central. That approach involves talking about values, choices, and how to live with uncertainty, which can help people wrestling with work direction or life transitions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, existential ideas, or a combination fits their goals and preferences. This decision is based on the client’s needs and what they want to accomplish.
