Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Thomas Johnson commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to improve mood and coping. This approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges.He also uses Motivational Interviewing, a collaborative conversational method that helps clients explore and strengthen their own motivation to change. It can be particularly useful for substance use, ambivalence about treatment, and goals related to behavior change.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Thomas works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and he adapts techniques as progress is made.
Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and help maintain continuity of care when life circumstances make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can deliver focused, goal-oriented work through remote sessions while accommodating individual routines and commitments.
