How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy puts the client's perspective front and center. The therapist offers empathic listening and follows the client's pace so people feel heard and understood. This approach helps when someone needs a safe place to sort through strong feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Sessions often include simple exercises and homework to try between meetings, which can make progress feel tangible. CBT is useful for anxiety, anger, and depression where patterns of thinking keep problems going.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationships and personal reactions. It helps people identify underlying needs and change interaction patterns that cause recurring conflict or disconnection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Charles will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying approaches, checking in, and adjusting the plan together.

If you want online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit more easily into daily schedules, reduce travel time, and let them work on issues from a familiar setting. Discuss scheduling and session length when you set up your first appointment.
