Approaches that guide online sessions
Eric blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to make online work clear and practical. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person's experience, which helps build trust and focus on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches specific skills to change them, useful for anxiety, depression, and addiction-related patterns.He also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change. That approach is collaborative and respects where a person is starting from, which works well when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about change. Together these methods help shape a plan that fits each person's goals and pace.
Online formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent. Video calls let the therapist and client read facial cues and work in real time. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for clients who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick coping prompts, or step-by-step planning between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules and communication needs while keeping the focus on practical progress.
