Using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Ideas Online
Dr. Spohn commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and can include homework like tracking thoughts, testing beliefs, and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression.She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people clarify values and strengthen their drive to change. That approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making a change, such as new parenting strategies or work goals.
Psychodynamic ideas are used when it helps to look at long-standing patterns rooted in past experiences. This can reveal recurring relationship patterns or self-esteem issues and inform practical steps forward.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide what methods fit best. Plans can be adjusted as progress is made and priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work, school, and family routines.
