Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Marcos integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then commit to actions tied to their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where avoidance gets in the way. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic, obsessive thoughts, and social anxiety. Finally, Client-Centered Therapy guides sessions with warmth and empathy, letting the person set the pace while the therapist reflects and clarifies.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Marcos will talk about options, try methods that seem likely to fit, and adjust plans based on what the person and therapist notice together. The goal is to match techniques to goals and daily realities rather than follow a single fixed method.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer practical flexibility. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Text and chat options support ongoing check-ins, brief reflections, or therapy notes between appointments. These choices make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and other commitments while keeping continuity of care with a licensed professional.
