He speaks English and Spanish and brings six years of clinical experience to conversations about daily struggles. Parents reading this can expect clear, practical steps and straightforward talk about next steps.

Ricardo draws from approaches that focus on emotions, thoughts, and values to build coping skills. Sessions are shaped to each person's goals so therapy stays relevant and direct.

Background and approach

He uses techniques that help people notice patterns, make changes, and strengthen important connections. In practice he pairs Emotionally-Focused Therapy with acceptance-based and attachment-informed methods. That means he pays close attention to feelings in the moment, works with what matters most to the person, and looks at how relationships affect wellbeing.

He also draws on cognitive-behavioral tools to address thinking patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. Ricardo has worked in independent practice and in government settings, giving him experience with a range of life situations. He is familiar with stressors like immigration, first responder and veteran concerns, and multicultural pressures.

He also addresses grief, trauma, parenting strain, intimacy issues, and challenges linked to mood or attention differences. Sessions are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules. Prices vary by location and are handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support

Emotion-focused care delivered online

Ricardo commonly integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Attachment-Based approaches in online sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on how feelings shape connection and helps people understand and shift emotional responses that get in the way of close relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy works on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking actions that match personal values. Attachment-Based approaches look at how early and current relationship patterns influence how people seek closeness and safety.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ricardo will collaborate with each person to identify what matters most, then test methods that fit their goals and preferences. That way sessions stay focused on useful changes rather than fixed formulas.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues during emotional conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for short check-ins, and messaging is useful for quick reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while maintaining regular contact with a licensed professional.
