Approaches and Access for Online Therapeutic Work

John draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online sessions. ACT helps people clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult emotions while taking committed steps toward meaningful life goals - it is often useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current behavior and emotional responses - it can be helpful for relationship struggles, trauma-related issues, and building healthier connections.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and John works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts strategies over time so therapy stays aligned with the client’s priorities.

Online therapy with John is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, connect across distances, and maintain continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change.
