Therapeutic Approaches for Remote Care
Richard Henegar uses several evidence-informed approaches to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on building practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - useful for managing intense emotions, anger, and impulsivity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people explore and reorganize emotional responses in relationships to improve connection and communication.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Richard works collaboratively with each client, discussing goals, preferences, and needs to determine which methods will be most helpful and adapting them as work progresses. He frames treatment as a partnership in which options are explored and adjusted together.
Online therapy with Richard can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, family responsibilities, or clients in different locations.
