Clients who prefer direct, structured guidance may find his approach useful. He gives concrete exercises to practice between sessions and checks progress regularly. Over time the focus is on building practical routines and habits that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.
He practices in Georgia and conducts work in English. To begin, prospective clients answer a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to review goals and decide on next steps.
How his approaches translate to online work

CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT emphasizes practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills for intense emotions and relationship stress.He treats choice of approach as a collaborative decision. In the first sessions he reviews symptoms, goals, and what the client prefers. Together they decide whether CBT, DBT techniques, Trauma-Focused work, or some combination will best match the issue and the client’s goals.
