About Myles
Myles Machado is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with seven years of experience. He works with adults who want clearer ways to manage anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and life transitions. He names anger among the concerns he addresses, alongside grief, depression, addictions, and self-esteem issues.
Myles believes people know important parts of their own stories. He uses that starting point to help clients notice patterns that feed frustration and resentment. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. That might mean new ways to speak up, small behavior changes, or simple calming practices.
He draws from client-centered therapy to keep conversations focused on what matters to the person. Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness practices are used to build emotional regulation and reduce impulsivity.
Myles also brings motivational interviewing into work with people facing addictions or who feel stuck about change. He aims for clear goals and realistic next steps rather than abstract promises. Progress is measured in what a person is doing differently week to week.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational. People can expect to talk through recent incidents, notice what triggers strong reactions, and leave with one or two specific strategies to try. Myles accepts international clients and holds his practice in Florida.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Myles commonly uses client-centered work to keep conversations focused on the client's priorities. That approach centers the person's goals and what they bring to each session, helping identify which moments of anger matter most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot the thoughts and behaviors that keep anger cycling. CBT offers concrete exercises to try between sessions, such as tracking triggers and testing alternative reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness techniques help build emotional regulation and reduce impulsive responses in stressful moments.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Myles collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He frames this as a shared process where strategies are adjusted over time based on what helps.
Confirm the platform and session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. These practical benefits can help people try new coping strategies without major schedule changes.
