About Wildelia

Dr. Wildelia "Delia" Santiago helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, anger, bipolar challenges, and major life changes. She introduces a calm, patient presence so clients can talk about what is hardest for them without feeling judged.

Delia creates a straightforward space for practical work. She listens first and then helps people set clear, small goals they can try between sessions. Sessions focus on skills people can use right away to manage intense emotions, navigate conflict, or handle sudden changes.

Background and approach

Her approach blends several therapy styles, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered techniques. That mix supports both learning new coping skills and making sense of painful feelings. Delia also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused methods when those fit the person’s needs.

Dr. Santiago holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential in Florida and brings 13 years of professional experience to her work. She speaks Spanish and can meet with people who prefer that language.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. International clients may also be seen. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a session based on the therapist’s availability.

Therapeutic approaches that work well online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting taken over by them, and it focuses on actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches tools to change patterns that cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person’s experience guides the work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and day-to-day life and will recommend methods that fit. Decisions about which strategies to try are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls are good for a more traditional session with face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can offer a shorter check-in, and text messaging lets people work in smaller moments through the week. These options help therapy fit around work, family demands, and travel.
