Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

John Funk integrates several proven approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that develop early in life and helps people understand how those patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses, which can be useful for abandonment, attachment, and intimacy concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore feelings and values at their own pace; this approach can help with self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is often effective for anxiety, depression, panic, and phobias.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. John works collaboratively with each client to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, preferences, and unique circumstances, adapting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy expands access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and the ability to connect from familiar surroundings. These options allow clients to engage in consistent care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, making it easier to maintain momentum in therapy.
