Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Nelson draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying values and taking steps toward a meaningful life - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and low motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship experiences shape current patterns, helping with relationship struggles, trauma responses, and issues of trust and connection. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's experience, offering empathy, unconditional respect, and a collaborative atmosphere to build self-understanding and confidence.

Finding the right approach often unfolds together. Nelson partners with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the work over time to ensure the best possible match.

Online therapy with Nelson can be offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule care around daily life. These options provide flexibility and accessibility, enabling consistent work on stress, trauma, relationships, and self-esteem from locations that suit the client.
