He works with people dealing with panic attacks, paranoia, process addictions, and self-harm. He aims to help people find greater self-love and purpose.

How CBT and DBT work in online therapy
Oscar uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often focuses on concrete exercises and short-term goals for issues like anxiety, depression, panic, and addiction.He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for regulating intense emotions and improving coping. DBT emphasizes practical tools such as distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness for people struggling with strong mood swings or self-harm urges.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist and client work together to decide which methods fit the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Techniques can be adjusted as progress is made so the plan stays useful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you use visual cues when that helps the work. Phone sessions are useful when video isn’t an option or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who prefer writing to talking. Those options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping treatment consistent.
