About Teodoro

Teodoro Anderson Diaz is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of experience in Connecticut. He holds an MSW from Springfield College and uses that background to guide straightforward, practical care. He speaks English and Spanish and works with people who want relief from depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, and anger.

He draws on Existential therapy to help people reflect on values, meaning, and the choices they face. He blends that with Client-Centered methods to keep the work focused on each person’s priorities.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when patterns of thought and behavior need clearer structure and practice. Sessions tend to be calm and direct. He listens closely, asks clear questions, and helps people try out small changes between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing is used to build commitment when someone is unsure about change. His background includes many clinical settings over 20 years, including work related to addictions and trauma. That experience informs practical problem solving for issues like stress, grief, relationship strain, and workplace burnout.

He also offers support around immigration and multicultural concerns. People can expect a collaborative approach that mixes conversation, problem-solving, and real-life experiments. Teodoro aims to meet people where they are and tailor the pace of work to their needs and goals.

Online support

Approach and access in online care

Teodoro uses Existential Therapy to help people think about life direction, meaning, and decisions. That approach can be useful when someone feels stuck, uncertain, or is re-evaluating priorities. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative space where the person's goals lead the work, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought and behavior patterns and practice specific changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He discusses goals and preferences and then adapts methods so they fit each person’s needs. This is a collaborative process that can shift over time as progress and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and rapport building. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, reflection between sessions, or people who prefer writing over talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or time-zone constraints.
