Therapeutic approaches and online care

John Horner commonly draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in his work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client's own insights and values guide progress - it is helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening motivation for change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help with intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and John works collaboratively with each person to determine what techniques and strategies fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts methods over time so the plan evolves with the client's progress.

Online therapy with John offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and access support from where a person is most comfortable. Licensed professionals can deliver effective, evidence-informed care through these formats while working with clients to build practical skills and progress toward meaningful goals.
