Approach to remote therapy
Maldonado offers online sessions that pair a collaborative, person-centered stance with concrete skill-building. In practice she often draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. These approaches are presented in accessible, step-by-step ways so clients can apply tools between meetings.
She also incorporates elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when work on values, meaning, or relationship patterns is indicated. That combination supports both action-oriented change and deeper exploration of emotions and attachment dynamics. Maldonado describes her role as a partner in treatment, matching methods to each individual rather than adhering to a single model.
Remote care is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions can be conducted in English or Spanish, and format options are discussed at intake to determine what fits best for the person seeking support.
