Therapeutic approaches and online care

Ricardo uses well-established, evidence-based techniques to help people manage mood and family challenges. One approach focuses on building practical coping skills and routines to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning; it teaches concrete steps to manage stress, sleep patterns, and emotional triggers. Another approach emphasizes identifying strengths and solving problems together, which helps with relationship difficulties, parenting stresses, and life transitions by creating clear, achievable goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ricardo collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s working, adjust strategies, and decide when to try different tools so progress is steady and realistic.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins are available by live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and keep momentum between sessions.
