How motivational interviewing and online sessions work together
Brett uses motivational interviewing, a conversational method that helps people weigh options and find their own reasons to change. It’s useful for addictions, stuck habits, and moments when someone feels unsure about next steps.His client-centered stance means sessions focus on the person’s goals and values. The therapist and client collaborate to identify small steps and measure progress over time.
Online formats make that collaborative process more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, ask quick questions, or work between sessions without scheduling a call.
Using a mix of these options, Brett helps tailor the approach to each person’s needs and schedule. The goal is a workable plan for change that fits daily life, not a one-size-fits-all model.
