Evidence-Based Therapy, Made Flexible Online

Alejandro Holguin, LCSW, draws from approaches that help clients understand patterns, respond to emotions differently, and build healthier connection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing practical skills to shift them, which can be especially useful when stress, anxiety, or low mood start to interfere with daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most. It can support people who feel stuck in worry, self-criticism, or shame and want to move forward with greater purpose. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations about closeness, trust, and self-worth, which can be helpful when relationship concerns or attachment issues keep repeating.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alejandro works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and choose strategies that fit their situation, adjusting as needs change over time.

Online therapy adds flexibility without losing structure and support. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, and can also use live chat or text-based messaging for ongoing connection between sessions when that format fits best.
