How his approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then taking steps that match your values. It can help with depression, anxiety, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for mood, anxiety, sleep, and stress issues. Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop safer ways of relating and connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That process includes trying methods and checking in about what feels helpful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing appointments during breaks or from another location. It can also let sessions focus on short skill-building check-ins or longer, deeper work depending on what a person needs. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and cognitive skills to online delivery so people can practice tools between meetings.
