Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Richard integrates evidence-informed approaches into his online work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on helping people clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. CBT helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical strategies for mood, anxiety, sleep, and many everyday challenges.
He also draws on client-centered principles that emphasize listening, empathy, and tailoring the process to each person's needs. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the therapeutic process; Richard collaborates with clients to select and adjust approaches based on their goals, preferences, and what proves most helpful over time.
Online therapy with Richard can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are difficult, while still working with licensed professionals who guide the process.
