Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Nicholas "Nick" Cross uses evidence-informed approaches to guide online sessions in ways that address specific goals and life challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, and low mood; it is practical and skills-oriented, often helping clients develop tools for daily life. Motivational Interviewing is a client-centered method that explores ambivalence and strengthens motivation for change by helping clients clarify personal reasons for shifting patterns and taking actionable steps. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward the future the client wants, making it a good fit for clients seeking concrete progress and short-term gains.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Cross works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan over time as progress unfolds. Online therapy offers flexible options for connecting, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access support from home, and maintain consistent contact between sessions.
