About Myles

Myles Machado is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. He meets people where they are and works with them to build on strengths and practical skills. His approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at making day-to-day life feel more manageable.

He uses Systemic Therapy to look at how relationships and roles shape patterns of behavior and emotion. That perspective can help with family problems, communication issues, and repetitive patterns like codependency.

Background and approach

He also uses Client-Centered methods to create a respectful space where people can talk through what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is part of his toolkit for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior when anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem get in the way.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are used to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and present-moment focus. Myles brings seven years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns such as grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and issues around identity and relationships. He explains options plainly and helps people choose strategies that fit their lives.

Sessions are available in English and can be scheduled to fit different routines. Myles encourages practical, small steps and ongoing collaboration so people can notice steady change over time.

Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Systemic Therapy looks at relationships and daily roles to see how they shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions using this approach can help identify patterns that come up at home or work and create new ways of relating to others.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making space for a person to tell their story. In remote sessions this often means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what they hear, and helps people clarify goals and next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. In online sessions clients can learn and practice exercises between meetings and use messaging for brief check-ins about progress.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That collaborative process may combine elements from different approaches and can be adjusted over time as needs change.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat or text are handy for short check-ins or when a written record is helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
