Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Miguel Koschil integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet different needs. Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT focuses on building practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness; it is often helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and behavioral patterns that cause distress. Existential Therapy explores meaning, values, and personal responsibility in the face of life’s challenges; it can support people wrestling with purpose, life transitions, grief, or feelings of isolation. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of experience, which can reduce stress, improve sleep, and strengthen attention and self-awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Koschil works collaboratively with each person to clarify goals, consider treatment options, and tailor methods based on individual needs, preferences, and life context. This collaborative stance aims to ensure the approach fits the person rather than forcing a single model on every situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, consult with licensed professionals from different locations, and maintain continuity of care during life transitions or travel.
