How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Justin commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, or anger. CBT gives concrete exercises and short-term plans people can try between sessions.He also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills help when emotions feel intense or relationships become strained. Motivational interviewing is used to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change and to build commitment for difficult steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Justin collaborates with each person to choose or blend methods that match their goals and preferences. He reviews progress and adjusts strategies so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is low or when a session is needed during a work break. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between fuller sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try skills in real-world moments.
