Using Narrative and Action-Focused Approaches Online
Diego draws from Narrative Therapy to help people notice and reframe the stories they tell about themselves, which can change how they respond to problems. Narrative work is useful for identity concerns, relationship patterns, and recurring life themes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another core approach he uses; it helps people clarify values, accept difficult thoughts, and take small steps toward meaningful goals. ACT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with change.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Diego will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will choose techniques and a pace that fit the person’s life and priorities rather than following one fixed method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family routines, and busy days while keeping consistent progress.
