Online support
Approaches and online sessions that fit daily life
He commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; this approach often focuses on practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. He also brings Emotionally-Focused Therapy into work on relationships and attachment, helping people name feelings and improve how they connect. For trauma work he incorporates EMDR-informed methods aimed at reducing the hold of painful memories and strong emotional reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try first and adjusts plans based on how those methods land. Clients set goals together with the therapist and the plan shifts as progress and preferences emerge.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when that helps progress. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
