How his approach translates to online care
David uses client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person, focusing sessions around their priorities and goals. This approach helps people feel heard and guides how therapy proceeds in ways that fit their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical alternatives; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Narrative therapy helps people reframe their story and see challenges from different angles, which can ease stuck patterns and build new meaning.Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. He discusses goals and preferences at the start and checks in regularly to adjust methods. That way therapy stays focused on what the client wants to achieve, rather than following a fixed formula.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth or being on camera is an issue. Live chat or text messaging can fit brief check-ins, quick progress notes, or people who prefer writing between sessions. These options offer flexibility to schedule around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping consistent therapeutic work.
