These approaches are used to help with addiction, depression, grief, anger, and relationship or identity concerns.

How John Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that move someone toward the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, cravings, or depressive moods. Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and moves at their pace while the therapist offers empathy and support.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. John will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit their needs. He treats this as a collaborative process where the client’s feedback shapes what happens in sessions.
