Approaches That Guide Online Care with Leonardo Custidiano
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, often called CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. It is practical and skills-oriented, helping people reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and problematic behaviors by building coping strategies and problem-solving skills. Psychodynamic therapy looks at underlying emotional patterns and unconscious influences that shape current relationships and reactions. It helps people explore how past experiences and attachment patterns affect present-day functioning and long-standing difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, blends skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness - useful for challenges involving impulsivity, intense emotions, and self-harm.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Leonardo collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts methods over time so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can occur by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to engage from different locations and at varied times. These options make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions, access support during life transitions, and fit care into busy schedules while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to each client.
