Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Federico draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to address a range of emotional and relational concerns. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore their feelings and values and find their own path forward. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors by teaching practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions, anger, and relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Federico works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and situation, and he adapts strategies as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine techniques to meet individual needs.
Online therapy provides flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it possible to access care around work, family, and travel commitments. These options can increase convenience and continuity of support while allowing therapy to fit into everyday life.
