Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Carlos Castillo uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where a person's experience is heard and respected; this approach helps with self-exploration, building self-esteem, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to develop concrete strategies for managing anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and addictive patterns. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment to goals, which can be particularly useful for substance use, habit change, and stages of ambivalence.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Carlos works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress is made. The aim is to match practical tools with a supportive therapeutic relationship.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging so scheduling can fit into busy lives. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact, practice new skills between sessions, and receive consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location within the therapist's service area.
