How CBT and related approaches are used in online sessions
Chad commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions tend to focus on specific problems, practical exercises, and actions to try between meetings that can change patterns over time. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and encourage committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Client-Centered Therapy provides a straightforward, respectful space where the client’s perspective guides the pace and focus of the work.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Chad will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of methods to try. He adjusts the plan based on what is working and what the client wants to prioritize during therapy.
