Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Michael Bryan uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which is often effective for anxiety, depression, and coping challenges. He also applies client-centered therapy, which focuses on empathetic listening and collaborative exploration so clients can develop their own insights and solutions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach he uses to help individuals build psychological flexibility by clarifying values and practicing mindful acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. When working with clients, Dr. Bryan tailors methods to match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and he collaborates with them to find the best fit rather than prescribing a single technique.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide greater scheduling flexibility and make it easier to access care from home or other locations. These formats support ongoing, practical work between sessions and allow licensed professionals and therapists to offer consistent, goal-focused support across a range of concerns.
