Attachment, Insight, and Flexible Online Care



Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and safety in relationships. It helps people understand how early bonds shape current attachments, which can be useful for addressing relationship struggles, abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin issues. Client-Centered Therapy is grounded in respect for the client's experience and emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration; it supports personal growth, self-esteem, and clearer decision making by following the client s lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it effective for anxiety, stress, mood difficulties, and everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Paul will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts interventions over time to reflect what proves most helpful. This collaborative stance helps ensure care stays relevant and responsive.

Online therapy provides flexibility for busy lives and those who live far from in-person options. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can engage in ongoing work from home or while traveling, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them. Licensed professionals can use these formats to support progress, skill building, and relational work with practical scheduling options.
