How his approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and following what matters to the client. In practice this means sessions focus on the client’s goals, values, and strengths, which can help with relationship struggles, parenting stress, and grief.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses practical exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage moods, and address unhelpful patterns. These tools often translate well to online formats.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. Adjustments happen over time based on how a person responds, so therapy is a team effort.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, and text-based messaging or live chat can work for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it possible to keep continuity of care around work, school, or parenting demands.
