How Dominque works
He combines a warm, nonjudgmental stance with clear expectations about follow-through and skill practice between sessions. Dominque uses Client-Centered approaches to create a space where clients feel heard. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and build different habits.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when people need skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. He also integrates elements of the Gottman Method when addressing communication and relationship patterns. Existential ideas come into play for clients asking questions about meaning, purpose, or major life transitions.
Sessions often include short assessments and measurable goals so progress is visible over time. Dominque has worked in outpatient, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization settings. His style fits people who want both support and accountability.
Outside of work he enjoys travel, Ohio State football, staying active, and time with family and friends.

Approaches that guide online work
Dominque often uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, accepting space where people can talk honestly about what they are feeling and thinking. This approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and explore personal goals without judgment.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day struggles because it gives clear exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dominque will help figure out which methods match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. He treats therapy as a collaboration and adjusts strategies as progress is tracked over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection is needed. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is desired. Live chat and text messaging offer brief, ongoing support between meetings and can fit into busy days or work breaks.
