How Jorge uses different approaches in online work

Jorge commonly draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in online conversations. Client-centred work focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship, helping people feel heard and understood as they talk about daily worries. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and habits, and uses small changes in thinking and behaviour to break cycles of anxiety or low mood.

He also uses existential ideas when people want to discuss meaning and life choices, helping them reflect on values and direction. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jorge will discuss options with each person and agree together which methods to try based on needs, goals and personal preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or enabling a conversation when someone cannot get to an office. The aim is to make therapeutic help practical and usable alongside daily commitments.
