Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Dr. Johannes (Jean) Roux uses several evidence-informed approaches suited to online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for depression, anxiety, stress, and coping with change. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about their lives, helping them reframe experiences and separate identity from problems, which can be helpful for trauma, grief, and life transitions. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying practical steps and strengths to make meaningful change quickly, making it useful for clients seeking goal-oriented coaching and short-term progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and he works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaboration allows therapy to adapt over time as circumstances and priorities evolve.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make therapy more flexible and accessible for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and clients who prefer remote care. These options support regular contact, timely skill practice, and convenient continuity of care with licensed professionals and therapists.
