Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care

Diana Santiago-Romero uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and relational understanding. One primary focus is skills-focused work that teaches coping strategies, stress management, and emotion regulation to help people manage anxiety, cravings, and everyday challenges. These techniques are useful for clients seeking concrete tools to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Another central approach is relational and family-focused therapy, which looks at patterns between people and how relationships shape wellbeing. This approach can help couples and families address communication problems, conflict, and the impact of stressors on close relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Diana works with clients to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they choose strategies that fit the person and the situation.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and access. These formats allow clients to engage in therapy from their own environments and to choose the communication style that best supports their progress.
