Online support options
Therapeutic tools and online care that fit your life
Alejandro commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people practice new ways of connecting and responding in close relationships.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Alejandro will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt techniques across approaches. This collaborative planning makes it easier to try tools and adjust them as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided skill work. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or a good fit when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send brief updates, ask quick questions between sessions, or use written reflections when that works better for daily life. These options help therapy fit into busy schedules and different routines, while keeping the focus on practical change and steady progress.
