About Orlando
Orlando keeps sessions direct and respectful. He invites people to share only what feels comfortable and focuses on issues the client wants to work on. His style blends practical problem solving with attention to feelings and day-to-day choices.
He uses a mix of approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking, solution-focused steps to set achievable goals, and emotionally-focused work to look at connection and feelings. Motivational interviewing is used when people need help finding motivation to change behaviors.
Orlando has worked with concerns such as parenting challenges, communication problems, impulsivity, anger, grief, midlife transitions, relationship conflict, ADHD, and mood disorders. He also has experience with situations that involve custody, separation, and parenting under stress.

How Orlando blends approaches for online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and decide what changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought patterns and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and express feelings and can be useful for improving connection and working through relationship distress.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Orlando will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose techniques that fit the person’s needs and life. The plan can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people access support while balancing work, school, or parenting responsibilities. Ask about specific session formats and scheduling when you start the matching process.
