Approaches That Guide Online Work and Connection

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape present-day bonds and emotional responses, offering a route for improving intimacy, communication, and relational trust. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, empathic therapeutic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s lead to foster self-understanding and growth, making it especially helpful for building self-esteem and processing grief or identity concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Paul works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to identify which methods best match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts interventions over time so the work remains relevant and client-led.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which helps people fit therapy into busy or complex lives and access support across distances. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care, try different formats, and find the mode of communication that feels most comfortable for each individual.
