Online session options
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Christopher often uses Narrative therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, which can make decisions feel clearer and less stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients name what matters most and take small actions in line with those values, useful for anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and build better routines.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will ask about goals, past efforts, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit. Sessions often start with a shared plan and adjust based on what feels most helpful for the client.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit people who need lower bandwidth or prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are handy for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, or getting support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied daily rhythms.
