Therapeutic approaches used for remote sessions
Many of his sessions use cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused therapy to address symptoms and patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Trauma-focused therapy addresses how past traumatic events affect current reactions and uses techniques to process memories and reduce reactivity.He also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills in session work. DBT skills focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective interpersonal behavior, which can be helpful for strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship stress. The therapist and client decide together which methods suit the client’s needs and goals, adjusting the approach as work progresses.
