About Bosco
Dr. Bosco Lorio is a counselor with a Florida LMHC and a Georgia LPC and has worked in mental health for 20 years. He has experience in hospital and outpatient settings and focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, and issues related to sexual identity and orientation.
He has spent much of his career working with the veteran population and LGBTQ+ community. That work included hospital care and outpatient counseling for trauma, mood disorders, and stress-related problems. He also addresses relationship concerns, grief, addictions, and life changes.
In sessions he uses behavioral-cognitive methods as a starting point and mixes in other approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing. He aims to keep conversations practical and goal-oriented, working on thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily life.
Dr. Lorio describes his style as supportive and direct. He emphasizes respect, dignity, and feedback during treatment. He also tries to reduce stigma around seeking help and to adapt plans based on what actually helps the person in front of him.
He offers evening and weekend appointments while maintaining a hospital role during weekdays. Sessions are provided in English and Spanish. If someone is ready to make changes, he asks them to start by using the platform's matching tools to schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and decisions about values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which helps with mood, stress, and anger management. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness.Finding the right approach is collaborative. He will work with the client to try methods that fit their goals and daily life. Sessions can mix strategies over time so the person can see what actually helps with anger, relationships, or other concerns.
The profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or phone choices depending on comfort and bandwidth. Licensed professionals often use these practical options so therapy can slot into evenings or weekends without a long commute.
