Approaches That Guide Online Care

Marcela integrates several evidence-based approaches into her work, beginning with Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on building a trusting relationship and helping clients explore their story at their own pace while emphasizing empathy and respect. This approach is especially useful for people seeking understanding around grief, family issues, identity, and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT supports concrete changes in thinking and behavior that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are employed when clients need tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal boundaries, which can be helpful for relationship and attachment concerns. Throughout care, Marcela treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process - she works with clients to assess their needs, preferences, and goals and adjusts strategies over time to find the best fit.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and those who prefer remote access. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into everyday life, while allowing licensed professionals to provide meaningful therapeutic support from a distance.
