How CBT and online sessions work together
Chris uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change routines that worsen mood. CBT focuses on practical exercises and short-term goals, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping during life transitions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Chris will work with each person to decide which strategies fit their needs, goals, and daily life. Together they review what helps and adjust techniques as progress is made.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging can offer quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or paced written work between sessions. These options provide flexibility for people juggling work, family, or other responsibilities.
