Approach
Socrates begins each session with a strong person-centered approach and an evaluation based on models like BASIC-ID. He uses the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) and, based on that, he utilizes techniques from therapies such as CBT, Gestalt, Systemic and Attachment Therapy.
Above all, he values confidentiality and trustworthiness. In addition, Socrates prioritizes, clients' autonomy, non-maleficence and beneficence. Practicality (being solution-focused) is also part of his approach, as well as sustainability in the results of therapy.
