How evidence-based approaches fit into online care
Marco uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and skill building. One approach emphasizes learning coping skills to manage anxiety, stress, and mood symptoms through step-by-step practice and behavior change. This helps people reduce overwhelm and improve daily routines.Another area of focus targets trauma-related symptoms and emotional pain by helping clients process difficult memories and develop grounding strategies. This work aims to reduce reactivity and increase a sense of control over upsetting thoughts and memories.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marco works with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. He checks in regularly about what is helping and adjusts the plan together as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging support quicker updates, skill coaching between sessions, and those who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives.
