Background and approach
He offers resources such as books, workbooks, and practical assignments when they might help. His approach draws on Narrative Therapy along with client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas.

Mindfulness and emotionally-focused ideas are often used where they are helpful. Roberto works in both English and Spanish. He is comfortable helping people who face life transitions, career strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, ADHD, body-image concerns, and issues linked to adoption, attachment, or aging.
He also supports people exploring kink and alternative sexual cultures. Sessions can include practical tools and step-by-step suggestions, or longer conversations that map patterns and decisions. Roberto aims to help each person find clearer choices and workable next steps.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Roberto directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How therapeutic styles translate to online care
Roberto often uses Narrative Therapy and Client-Centered approaches online. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people live by and looks for alternative narratives that open up new choices. This approach can help with identity, grief, trauma, and relationship patterns. Client-Centered work emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so the person sets the pace and goals.He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when practical changes are needed. CBT targets thoughts and behaviors with simple exercises and experiments that can be done between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhelpful habits.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Roberto will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and daily life, and then suggest a blend of methods that fits. That collaborative process helps shape an individualized plan rather than forcing a single method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy conversations and visual cues. Phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, homework notes, or shorter focused exchanges. These options make it easier to fit sessions into workdays, caregiving schedules, or different time zones while keeping therapy consistent and practical.
