Therapeutic Approaches and Online Work



Jason draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that helps people resolve ambivalence and build motivation for change, often useful for issues such as addictions or making life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jason works collaboratively with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors his methods accordingly so the chosen approach fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from familiar environments and to continue consistent work during life transitions or when in-person visits are difficult. Jason uses these formats to maintain continuity of care and to help clients progress in ways that fit their daily lives.
