Approaches that translate to online therapy



Charles commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them and encourages committed action guided by personal values - it can be helpful for anxiety, depression and struggles with self-esteem and life purpose. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, empathetic therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers acceptance and support so clients can explore their experience and find their own solutions - this approach suits grief, relationship concerns and identity questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns - it is often used for depression, social anxiety and trauma-related responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Charles works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan over time in partnership with the client and drawing on the perspective of licensed professionals when helpful.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility and greater accessibility for those balancing work, family, travel or mobility constraints. These formats allow therapists to maintain therapeutic continuity and to tailor session structure to what works best for each client.
