Background and approach
Dr. Acosta draws on client-centered work to keep sessions focused on each person's needs. He combines that with cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new habits.
Mindfulness and emotionally-focused strategies are used when they fit the client's goals. Over the years he has supported people with trauma and abuse, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to gender and sexual identity. He also works with concerns such as obsessions and compulsions, communication problems, and life transitions like divorce or relocation.
Therapy is offered in multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. International clients can be seen, and a subscription model is used for sessions that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a prospective client follows the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules sessions based on availability.
How Dr. Acosta’s Approaches Work Online
Dr. Acosta commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs so goals come from the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more helpful ones, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.He also draws on emotionally-focused ideas when relationship or intimacy concerns are central. That approach helps people name emotions and understand how feelings shape interactions. Choosing which approaches to use is a collaborative process; the therapist and client review goals and try methods that fit the situation and personal preferences.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video lets people read nonverbal cues and work in real time. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and work well for a quick check-in. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflections between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care, manage scheduling constraints, and find the communication style that works best.
