How Diego’s Approaches Work Online
Diego commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them, accept difficult feelings, and take small steps toward chosen values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying out different behaviors to change how someone feels and functions.He also draws from Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in the client's priorities, offering listening and support while clients set the agenda. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Diego will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences and adjust as progress is made.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversations and visual cues, phone is often easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, travel, or complex schedules while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
