Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, allowing the client’s own goals and values to guide the work. This approach helps when someone needs a respectful space to explore identity, relationships, or self-worth at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on practical steps and small changes that lead toward the client’s preferred future, which can be especially helpful for motivation and problem-solving.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jonathan works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. He aims to tailor techniques to each person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and location. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, manage time constraints, and access licensed professionals from where you are, while preserving the collaborative nature of therapy.
