How his approaches translate to online work

Steven commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy when helping people by phone or video. CBT involves noticing unhelpful thoughts, testing new ways of thinking, and trying small behavioral experiments to reduce stress and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on what is already working and builds short, concrete goals to move forward quickly.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend an approach to try. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so methods fit the client's pace and life demands.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and keep momentum between appointments. It may be simpler to check in during a lunch break, take a shorter call when needed, or avoid travel time.
