Cristobal draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and patterns that interfere with daily life.

He encourages people to notice that starting therapy is a courageous step. To begin, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
