How narrative and practical approaches work online
Kevin often combines Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make sense of the stories that shape their behavior and to focus on values that guide change. Narrative work looks at recurring life themes and separates the person from the problem, while ACT teaches how to accept difficult feelings and commit to actions that match personal values.He also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current interactions. That approach can help people understand trust, closeness, and how they respond when stressed. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process - Kevin will work with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for conversation that benefits from face-to-face contact. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Chat or text messaging suits brief updates, coaching-style support, or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
