How Brett works
In sessions he blends practical strategies with listening and reflection.

Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to manage stress and tune into the present moment.

Online support options
Approach-focused online counseling and practical tools
Client-centered work places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgment, reflects what matters most, and helps people name their values and priorities. This approach is useful when someone needs a supportive space to process feelings and clarify goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It uses concrete exercises and homework to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and address anger or stress. CBT is often chosen when people want clear steps they can practice between sessions.
Choosing the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations; phone can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging let people share updates or get brief support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and daily life while keeping the focus on practical change.
