How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding and acceptance. The therapist listens carefully and follows the person’s concerns, helping them clarify what matters and choose next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build different habits for managing anxiety, anger, or depression.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, achievable steps. It helps people identify what is already working and use that to reach clearer goals more quickly.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, daily life, and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs shift.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving, and it can reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or conversations without being on camera if that feels better. Ask about which session formats are offered and how they can fit into everyday life.
