Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Support

John Swan integrates client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space that helps people explore their values and goals while emphasizing their own strengths and choices. This approach is useful for clients who want a collaborative relationship and deeper self-understanding.

He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often benefiting people coping with anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation. Motivational interviewing is another tool he employs to gently strengthen motivation and resolve ambivalence when clients are deciding on change, such as in areas of addiction, behavior change, or career shifts.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work and John will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. The process is tailored and flexible rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide greater scheduling flexibility, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain consistent support. These remote options allow licensed professionals and therapists to meet clients where they are and adapt care to fit busy lives.
