How Orlando's approaches shape online sessions
Orlando commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name strong emotions and to change recurring interaction patterns that cause distance or tension. EFT is often used for relationship and intimacy concerns, and for learning new ways to respond to feelings.He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to what the client brings. That approach aims to make space for people to decide what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in sessions as practical work on thoughts, behaviors, and small experiments clients can try between meetings to test what helps.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Orlando will discuss what seems most useful based on a person's goals, preferences, and the problems at hand. He frames this as a collaborative decision and may blend methods as needs change.
