Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Behnam commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered work into online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with personal values - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to change them, often supporting those dealing with depression, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. Client-centered therapy prioritizes a warm, empathic relationship and aims to help clients feel heard and understood so they can find their own solutions to issues like relationship strain and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Behnam works collaboratively with each client to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts techniques over time to match what proves most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy with Behnam is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into a busy life, and access support from home or elsewhere while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
