He is LMHC and LPC with 27 years of experience and works in Florida.

Roberto keeps sessions warm and interactive. He treats people with respect and sensitivity and avoids labeling.
Background and approach
He offers practical suggestions like books, worksheets, and at-home assignments to reinforce what happens in sessions. His approach blends several methods to fit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and to build different habits.
Client-Centered techniques create space for people to set the pace and shape goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and mindfulness practices are brought in when feelings and present-moment awareness need attention. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change.
Roberto tailors the mix based on what a person is trying to achieve. Roberto has worked with people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, eating and body image concerns, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and identity issues including LGBT matters. He also addresses areas such as abandonment, attachment, autism spectrum concerns, and coping after disasters.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions. Roberto offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Roberto often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new behaviors. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, phobias, and habit change because it focuses on clear steps and exercises.He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which makes room for each person to set the pace and goals. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients shape the focus of work in their own way.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when stronger attention to emotions and relationship patterns is needed. EFT helps people track emotional responses and learn different ways to connect or react in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Roberto will help figure out which methods match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made. The decision is collaborative and revisited over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow real-time conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework review, and when someone prefers written communication. These options make therapy more flexible and can fit around work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
