Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care
Daniel uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is useful for stress, anxiety, and situations where avoidance limits functioning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to problems such as depression, panic, and sleep difficulties; it offers practical skills for coping and symptom reduction. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so that the individual directs the pace and focus of sessions; this approach supports healing for grief, relationship and attachment challenges, and identity-related concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Daniel works together with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and tailors techniques from these therapies to create a personalized plan that fits the client’s life and priorities.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy schedules and changing circumstances while allowing therapists and clients to work together in ways that suit individual comfort and logistics.
