Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches work online
Matthew blends Narrative Therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral elements to tailor online work. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps identify alternative, more helpful narratives; it can be useful for issues like self-esteem, identity, and coping with life changes. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s experience and creates a space where the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, which helps when someone needs steady support and understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; it tends to help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and compulsive behaviors.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That conversation shapes whether sessions lean more toward narrative exploration, skill-building with CBT, or a listening-centered client approach.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow deeper face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is helpful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
