Approaches that fit your life and schedule
Jorge uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more balanced thinking so anxiety and low mood become easier to manage. Another approach centers on building everyday habits and behaviors that support confidence and reduce stress, with specific tasks to practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jorge will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels realistic. Together he and the client choose strategies to try, check what works, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several useful formats to fit different needs. Video calls let for face-to-face conversation when a fuller discussion is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, quick coaching, or when fitting support into a busy day. These options make it possible to receive consistent help while juggling work and family life.
