Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Domingo Zapata
Domingo commonly draws from client-centered therapy, which prioritizes empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own goals. This approach supports self-exploration and is useful for issues like low self-esteem, identity questions, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another core method he uses - it focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and teaching practical skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related challenges. Existential therapy is also part of his work, helping clients explore meaning, values, and choices when facing life transitions or questions about purpose.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Domingo works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor care to what actually works for the individual.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make scheduling easier and allow people to access licensed professionals from familiar settings. These formats support continuity of care and make it simpler to engage in regular work on the issues that matter most.
