How sessions work

How his therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It often helps with anger tied to shame, avoidance, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills for changing unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and reactive anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to emphasize based on goals, preferences, and what shows up in sessions. That choice can shift as people try tools and see what helps them manage emotion and rebuild important relationships.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commuting time. They can also make it simpler to continue work during life transitions or when juggling caregiving and job responsibilities.
