How narrative and practical methods work online
Teodoro often uses Narrative Therapy to help people rewrite upsetting or limiting stories about themselves, which can be useful for trauma, identity, and relationship concerns. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on each person's priorities and pace, allowing the client to guide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used when concrete skills and changes in thinking or behavior will help manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, or anger.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then adapt methods so therapy fits their life. Clients and therapist check in together about progress and can shift strategies when something isn’t working.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simpler option. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, notes between sessions, or a way to stay connected without long calls. These options increase flexibility and make ongoing work more manageable for people balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
