Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Alexsandro uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify personal values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward a more meaningful life. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and difficulties with motivation or focus.

He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy, trust, and emotional regulation. This approach supports people working through abandonment, attachment issues, and relationship difficulties by strengthening awareness of relational needs and responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alexsandro collaborates with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds. Registered professionals and therapists often blend approaches to match individual circumstances, and Alexsandro follows that collaborative model.

Online therapy gives flexibility to meet by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, so clients can choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to access consistent support across different time zones and life demands while maintaining ongoing therapeutic work.
