Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kenneth Winter commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as part of his work. CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday problems. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsivity, and improving relationships, which can be useful for mood instability, anger, and difficulty with emotional regulation.He also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to support clients working on attachment, relationship concerns, and family dynamics. EFT focuses on understanding emotional responses and strengthening secure connections between people, helping clients navigate grief, communication challenges, and parenting or blended-family issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kenneth works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to tailor techniques to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.
