Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with David Thomas

David Thomas uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive environment where the client's own values and goals guide the work; this approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and helping people feel understood as they explore identity, purpose, and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to develop practical skills for managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

He also employs trauma-focused techniques when past traumatic experiences are central to a person’s current difficulties, helping clients process painful memories and build coping strategies that reduce the impact of those experiences on daily life. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - David will work with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from wherever the client is located in Michigan. Licensed professionals, including therapists like David, use these formats to deliver interactive, goal-focused care that aligns with each person’s pace and priorities.
