Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Stanley uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the individual’s perspective guides the pace and focus of work - an approach that supports self-exploration, confidence building, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is employed to identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that contribute to addiction or anger. For clients processing traumatic memories, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and related reactions, offering a structured way to reprocess difficult experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Stanley will work with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the issues they want to address, adapting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care across life transitions. Licensed professionals can deliver these approaches effectively through remote sessions, helping clients access consistent support from their own communities.
