How sessions work
Approaches that translate to online sessions
Dr. Sexton uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as common approaches. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's experience, which helps when exploring relationship or intimacy concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change reactions like anger or anxiety.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness when needed. DBT-informed skills can be useful for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and reducing impulsive responses.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist through the matching process about practical details and how sessions can fit into everyday life.
