Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that contribute to relationship conflict. The Gottman Method is a research-informed approach for couples that explores communication, conflict management, and the dynamics that sustain relationship satisfaction. It helps partners build stronger understanding and repair difficult interactions. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and underlying emotions shape current patterns, offering insight into long-standing relationship and attachment issues and helping clients understand recurring difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. David works with each person or couple to assess needs, goals, and preferences and tailors his methods accordingly, adapting techniques from different approaches as appropriate to support progress.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care from a distance, and maintain consistency during life transitions, while allowing licensed professionals to deliver focused, goal-oriented work in ways that suit each client.
