Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Peter Waters draws on client-centered therapy to place the client's perspective at the heart of the work - this approach focuses on listening, empathy, and creating a supportive environment so individuals can identify their own goals and build self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help people notice and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT is practical and problem-focused, and can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness therapy introduces gentle attention practices that help people relate differently to difficult emotions and reduce reactivity, which can support stress management and improved emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Peter collaborates with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the client.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to engage from wherever they are and at times that fit their schedules. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing daily life, and they allow Peter and other licensed professionals to provide consistent therapeutic support across distances.
