About Myles
Myles Machado is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with seven years of experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, and parenting strain. He also supports those facing compassion fatigue and career or life changes.
Myles begins by listening to what matters most to the person in front of him. He treats clients as the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are direct and practical, focusing on habits, thoughts, and behaviors that keep problems going.
His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. He also uses client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in the client’s goals. Elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness can be brought in to manage intense emotions and improve moment-to-moment coping.
Myles helps people work through issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and infidelity. He also provides support for those dealing with chronic illness, caregiving stress, hospice and end-of-life topics, and men’s issues.
Sessions are practical and solution-focused. The aim is to develop clearer thinking, steadier reactions, and daily strategies that fit the client’s life. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule an initial visit.
How CBT, client-centered work and DBT translate online
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of responding. Online sessions can use worksheets, behavioral experiments, and thought records to practice new patterns between meetings. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting on the client’s goals so sessions stay focused on what the client wants to change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can be practiced and coached during remote meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and try methods that fit those goals. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most, and the client’s input guides which approaches continue.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or using a phone call if video would be difficult. Licensed professionals often combine structured homework, skills practice, and straightforward check-ins to keep progress moving between sessions.
