Therapeutic Approaches for Online Work with Horace Lackey



Horace commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), client-centered therapy, and attachment-based approaches in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and learning concrete skills to change patterns of behavior and emotion - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and respect for each person’s experience, creating space for clients to explore goals and build self-understanding. Attachment-based therapy examines relationship patterns formed in early life and how they affect current connections, which can help with intimacy, trust, and family issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Horace works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He blends techniques as appropriate so treatment is tailored rather than fixed.

Online therapy with Horace is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reach support from home, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult.
