About Sergio
Sergio Aisenberg is a licensed clinical social worker with 40 years of experience helping people face relationship, parenting, career, and life-change concerns. He speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese and works with people across California and beyond. Sergio meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce stress and improve day-to-day functioning.
He believes each person knows their own story and has strengths to build on. Sessions center on identifying those strengths and testing realistic approaches to change.
How Sergio works
Sergio uses straightforward conversation and collaborative goal-setting so people leave with a plan they can try between visits. Common topics he addresses include anxiety, addiction, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, and coping with transitions. He also helps with caregiver stress, communication problems, money and workplace issues, and midlife concerns.
He supports people working through divorce, control or impulsivity problems, and questions about life purpose. Sergio combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with coaching-style guidance when appropriate. He aims to make therapy feel like a useful problem-solving space rather than a lecture.
Appointments can be arranged to fit each person’s schedule and preferred format. To get started a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a session based on availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches and how they work online
Sergio works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete change. One common approach emphasizes identifying patterns in thoughts and behavior and then testing new ways of responding; it helps with anxiety, low mood, and stress by breaking problems into small steps. Another approach uses coaching-style guidance to set specific goals, practice skills, and track progress over time; this is useful for career questions, workplace issues, and money or life-purpose concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sergio collaborates with each person to match methods to their needs and goals. He listens to preferences and adjusts techniques as progress unfolds so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy is offered by licensed professionals in formats that fit different schedules and needs. Video calls are close to an in-person visit and work well for deeper conversations. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, share quick updates, or have shorter conversations on a flexible timeline. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other demands.
