Remote options and therapeutic focus
Marcos offers sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats are used to accommodate different preferences for real-time conversation or messaging-based contact while addressing emotional, relational, and life transition concerns. He integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address patterns of thinking and behavior while exploring values and purposeful action. CBT-based work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing alternative responses. ACT-based work emphasizes clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility so clients can take meaningful steps even when difficult feelings are present. For relationship-focused work he uses elements of the Gottman Method and Attachment-Based Therapy to attend to communication patterns, emotional connection, and attachment dynamics. Sessions are collaborative: goals, strategies, and skill practice are developed together with attention to what each person brings to the work.What is Marcos Villareal's clinical background?
