Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Connor integrates approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients address distress and build meaningful change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values, practicing acceptance of difficult emotions, and taking committed action toward a more fulfilling life - this approach can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and motivation challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving, which often reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression and improves problem solving. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness and can support those struggling with intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Connor works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts strategies as progress and feedback guide the work. This collaborative process helps tailor therapy to what is most helpful for the individual.
Online therapy with Connor offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity of care across locations, and access therapeutic support in formats that feel most comfortable. Licensed professionals can use these modes to provide consistent, structured therapy focused on skill building, emotional insight, and relationship improvement.
