Background and approach
He has a Doctor of Philosophy in Rehabilitation Counseling and a Masters of Arts in Clinical Psychology, and he also supervises newer clinicians and teaches part time. Sessions focus on what works day to day. He often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to link thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and to build new habits.
He also uses Solution-Focused methods to set small, concrete goals and Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies when emotion regulation and coping skills are needed. Conversations tend to be collaborative and practical. He listens first, then helps set clear steps you can try between sessions.
Many people leave with specific tools for managing panic, improving sleep, reducing impulsive behaviors, or communicating more clearly. Dr. Perez offers therapy in English and provides care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Approaches you can use online
Dr. Perez commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, panic, mood problems, and ADHD-related challenges. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, measurable goals and the steps needed to reach them, which can be useful for shifting routines, improving communication, or tackling a specific problem.Choosing a method is a team effort. During the first sessions the therapist will talk with you about your goals and daily routines, then suggest one or more approaches to try. He adjusts methods based on what helps and what feels doable for you, so treatment is tailored rather than fixed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for longer sessions that need visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging let you check in between meetings or have shorter, more frequent touchpoints. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, a school schedule, or a busy household.
