About Arturo

How Arturo works
He brings 11 years of experience helping people with anxiety, substance use, anger, and trauma-related concerns. In sessions he relies on clear, active techniques such as cognitive behavior strategies and motivational interviewing. He also employs client-centered methods to make room for each person's story and schema-focused work to address longer-standing patterns.
Clients can expect direct, practical work that targets thoughts, behaviors, and motivation. Arturo focuses on short-term goals and skills that people can use between sessions to manage symptoms and make changes. Services are offered from Texas and delivered in English or Spanish.
Arturo provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule and needs.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Many of Arturo's approaches translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive behavior strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different actions; this helps with depression, anxiety, sleep, and day-to-day coping. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused style that helps people strengthen their own reasons for change and is useful for addictions and behavior change.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Arturo will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. This happens together over the first few sessions and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send notes or check in between sessions and can fit around work or caregiving. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into a busy life.
