Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Scott integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into his online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel understood and supported as they explore goals and values. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be especially helpful for mood instability, strong emotions, and relationship challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Scott works collaboratively with each person to choose and adapt methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to meet the unique circumstances of each client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into a busy life or to continue work from home. These options support consistent access to treatment, allow for timely check-ins, and broaden opportunities for people who need adaptable scheduling and ongoing support.
