How Jonathan’s approach translates to online therapy

Jonathan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then practicing new ways of thinking and acting; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience, offering an accepting and nonjudgmental space to talk through feelings and goals.

He also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment. This approach is especially helpful for issues like substance use, ambivalence about change, and building motivation for new habits. Together these methods are chosen to fit each person’s goals and situation rather than following a single formula.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and adjust methods based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Clients can expect to try a few strategies, see what works, and refine the plan over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth work and skill practice, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, and busy schedules.
