Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Paul integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) into his online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting, empathetic relationship so people can explore their feelings and find their own solutions; it is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and grief. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) works with the link between thoughts, emotions and behaviours and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, addictive patterns and stress.
He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help clients understand recurring patterns and deeper emotional themes that influence current difficulties. Paul approaches treatment collaboratively - he works with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences and life context, and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with Paul can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to access support around work, family and daily commitments. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to continue care from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who aim to adapt methods to each person's needs.
