Therapeutic approaches and online care
Alejandro commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered principles. ACT helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that align with personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed in close relationships and helps repair connection and trust, which can be particularly helpful for attachment concerns, family problems, and intimacy issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s goals guide the work and personal insights are encouraged.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Alejandro collaborates with each client to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences and adapts methods as therapy unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure treatment feels relevant and manageable.
Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility in scheduling and the ability to engage from home or other convenient locations. Working with licensed professionals in this way can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
