How sessions work
How evidence-based approaches are used online
Arturo commonly uses cognitive behavior therapy, which helps people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anger and low mood. CBT typically involves identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying new behaviors to reduce reactivity.He also uses motivational interviewing to clarify a person’s goals and boost readiness for change. That approach is conversational and practical, useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about changing habits like substance use or patterns of reacting in anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they will monitor what helps and adjust the approach over time.
