About Myles
Myles Machado greets people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or burned out. He keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical steps. People come to him for stress, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, and other life changes.
Myles is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW practicing in Florida. He believes each person knows their story best and that therapy should build on what already works. In sessions he prioritizes clear goals and steady progress rather than jargon or long lectures.
Background and approach
His style mixes client-centered listening with tools drawn from cognitive behavioral work and dialectical behavior strategies. He helps people learn skills for managing intense emotions, changing unhelpful thoughts, and handling conflict. Mindfulness and motivational techniques are woven in when they match a person’s needs.
Myles has seven years of professional experience and uses that background to guide practical problem-solving. He helps clients navigate parenting stress, caregiving burdens, chronic illness challenges, and career uncertainty. He also offers support around identity and LGBT concerns, abandonment and attachment wounds, and issues like impulsivity or infidelity.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal oriented. He encourages small, sustainable changes people can use between meetings. For those coping with loss, chronic pain, or end-of-life issues, he provides steady, compassionate support focused on what matters most.
How Myles Uses Practical Approaches Online
Myles commonly uses client-centered therapy to anchor sessions. That means he listens closely and helps clients set goals that feel meaningful to them. It works well for people who want a supportive space to make decisions and sort their priorities.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a hands-on method that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT offers specific tools to reduce anxiety, manage low mood, and change unhelpful behavior patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy adds skills for tolerating intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which helps with impulsivity, anger, and relationship conflicts.
Choosing the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit, and adjust plans together over time. That collaborative process helps match techniques to what actually helps the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets people use facial cues and body language, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging supports shorter, ongoing contact between meetings. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while balancing work, caregiving, or travel.
