About Justin
Justin frames therapy as a practical process. He uses approaches that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, build new coping skills, and improve how they relate to others. Sessions often involve setting small goals, trying specific strategies between meetings, and talking through setbacks without judgment.
He has practiced in the helping field since 2013 and holds seven years of post-licensure experience as an LPC. That experience includes work with people facing traumatic stress, substance misuse, family-of-origin concerns, and challenges that affect men and young adults. He draws on both individual and group work in his background.
His methods include client-centered listening and structured techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. He also uses Motivational Interviewing to support change and the Gottman Method for relationship-focused work. These tools are chosen to match what each person brings to a session.
Justin aims to help people build coping skills, repair strained relationships, and regain a sense of control. He encourages practical steps and regular check-ins so progress is clear. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How these approaches can work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and guides the pace of work toward their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be useful when strong emotions interfere with daily life.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Justin will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That may mean combining listening-based work with skill-building exercises or focusing on relationship tools when partnership issues are central.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific online formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try different approaches without changing locations, so practical adjustments and skill practice can happen between meetings.
