Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Marco frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors to reduce symptoms related to mood disorders, anxiety, panic, and many everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness - useful for anger, impulsivity, and relationship problems.He also employs Motivational Interviewing to support people who are ready to change behaviors related to addiction or health goals. This collaborative, nonjudgmental approach helps clients clarify their reasons for change and build motivation one step at a time. Determining the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process - Marco works together with each client to select methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging can make it easier to fit care into a busy life. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, allow work with therapists from different locations within the same state, and support ongoing contact between sessions when helpful. Marco adapts his methods to each format so clients can pursue practical, evidence-informed work in a way that suits their routine and comfort.
