How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help with persistent anger, avoidance, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches step-by-step techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and reactive responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for regulating intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and sharpening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Geoffrey will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day needs. Sessions can include skill practice, behavior planning, and checking how strategies are working between meetings.

They also let people use different tools during a session such as worksheets or guided exercises that translate well to a video or phone conversation.
