Therapeutic approaches and online care

Kyle commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into his online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and creating a collaborative space where clients lead the conversation while the therapist supports autonomy and personal growth. CBT offers structured techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and to develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.

He also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help clients cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can be useful for trauma recovery, emotional regulation, and coping with life changes. The goal of these approaches is to offer both supportive listening and actionable strategies that fit each person’s needs.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Kyle works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches best match their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and he adjusts the plan as progress is made. Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexible ways to engage in therapy, making it easier to fit support into daily life and to maintain continuity of care across busy schedules.
