About Sergio

Sergio Castillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. He speaks English and Spanish and practices in Florida. Sergio focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and more in control.

He takes a direct and calm approach. Sessions focus on identifying triggers, improving communication, and building simple routines to reduce intense emotions. Sergio uses plain language and concrete homework so people can try new skills between sessions.

Background and approach

Sergio draws on five years of clinical experience working with mood issues, relationship struggles, and trauma-related concerns. He supports people dealing with attachment difficulties, post-traumatic stress, immigration-related stress, and challenges common to young adults. He also addresses anger and forgiveness as part of broader emotional work.

In sessions he helps people learn to name feelings, set boundaries, and practice healthier responses to conflict. He often teaches breathing and grounding techniques, role-plays conversations, and helps craft short plans for managing flare-ups. The aim is to make change feel manageable and realistic.

To get started, Sergio asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and sessions may take place by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

What Sergio works with

Everything Sergio lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Sergio's practice.

Approaches for managing strong emotions and online care

Sergio uses evidence-based techniques that focus on skills people can use right away. He teaches emotion regulation strategies which help identify triggers and reduce the intensity of anger or anxiety through breathing, grounding, and step-by-step coping plans. This approach helps when emotions become overwhelming and interfere with daily life.

He also uses communication-focused techniques to improve how people express needs and set boundaries. These methods include role-playing important conversations and building short scripts to practice, which can reduce repeated conflict and improve clarity in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sergio will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and situation, and will adjust techniques over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face interaction and longer sessions, phone calls can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text messaging allows shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
