Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Dr. Manocchio uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and some patterns that come from family of origin dynamics.He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that line up with those values even when difficult feelings remain. ACT can help with stress, coping with life changes, and making behavior changes that matter to the person.
Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative task. He will discuss what techniques fit a person's goals and preferences and may mix methods as needed. Clients are invited to give feedback about what is or isn't working so the plan can be adjusted together.
