How narrative and skills-based work translate online
Justin uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from problems and look at life stories from a new angle, which can shift how they relate to difficult feelings and patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete strategies people can practice between sessions. These approaches pair well with a client-centered stance that keeps goals practical and rooted in the person's life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean starting with story work and adding behavior-focused exercises, or focusing on skills for emotion regulation first and exploring narratives later.
Online formats offer practical benefits for this process. Video calls let the therapist and client read tone and expression during story work. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to schedule quick updates or practice skills between meetings. These options help people access regular sessions around work, childcare, or other commitments while keeping therapy practical and goal oriented.
