How his approaches translate to online sessions
Chad uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on concrete skills such as tracking thoughts, planning small experiments, and practicing responses to reduce stress and anxiety. Client-centered work involves listening and reflecting so clients can clarify what matters and set their own goals in therapy.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness. These practices can help with grief, anger, and compassion fatigue by giving people ways to pause and respond rather than react. Chad treats choosing an approach as a collaborative process and will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Chad will discuss a practical plan for sessions and homework that fits the client’s routine so tools learned in therapy can be used in everyday life.
