His approach balances active listening with structured interventions and a collaborative stance. Dr.
Spelgatti emphasizes clarity and adaptability, working to identify what matters most to clients and to reduce barriers to progress. He addresses a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, mood disorders, trauma, addiction-related issues, grief, intimacy and sexual concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting and family dynamics, career transitions, and compassion fatigue.
Dr. Spelgatti accepts international clients and offers several remote session formats to support access for people with varied schedules and needs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
The therapist combines Internal Family Systems with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address internal conflicts and values-driven change. Internal Family Systems helps people notice and work with different parts of themselves to reduce internal conflict and increase self-leadership, which can be useful for issues like anxiety, trauma responses, and relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values, accepting difficult thoughts and feelings, and taking committed action toward meaningful goals, often helping with stress, depression, and life transitions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most effective, and then adjust methods over time to fit progress and emerging needs. This partnership helps ensure interventions match the person rather than forcing a single modality.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or geographic distance and allow ongoing support between sessions when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and skill-building work to remote formats so clients can continue progress from wherever they are.
