Justin writes in straightforward terms and aims to make conversations clear and useful from the first session.
Justin draws on about seven years of clinical experience and a broader helping background that began in 2013.
Background and approach
He offers individual counseling and has worked with people dealing with traumatic stress, relationship strain, and issues tied to family of origin and fatherhood. He also supports those facing addiction and recovery challenges, including drug and alcohol addiction. In sessions he uses approaches that focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, building coping skills, and strengthening communication in close relationships.
He blends client-centered listening with structured tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. Motivational interviewing and the Gottman method also appear in his toolbox for relationship work and behavior change. People who want direct, goal-oriented help may find his style a good fit.
He encourages taking small, measurable steps and practicing new skills between sessions. He also pays attention to how past family patterns affect present choices and relationships. Justin frames setbacks as learning opportunities and works with clients to set realistic goals.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Justin often uses client-centered therapy, which centers on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can steer their own change. This approach helps when someone needs a safe place to sort feelings and clarify goals.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that looks at how thoughts affect behavior. CBT breaks problems into concrete steps and teaches tools for managing anger, anxiety, and low mood. Dialectical behavior therapy adds skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, useful when strong feelings lead to impulsive actions.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan over time. That collaborative process helps identify which tools help most in everyday life.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions suit quick check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, coaching between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain steady progress.
