How Garry's Approaches Work Online

Garry uses client-centered work to prioritize the person's concerns and goals. This approach means sessions are guided by what the client brings, with the therapist offering reflection and support to help clarify problems and choices. It is useful for building trust and making sure therapy stays relevant. He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing changes that lead to different outcomes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with decision-making or impulsivity. Mindfulness techniques are added to help manage strong emotions and improve focus through short, practical exercises. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Garry will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest methods to try together. He regularly checks in and adjusts the plan so the work stays useful and realistic. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and share materials visually. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, short coaching, and maintaining momentum between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules and practical needs.
