Integrative Approaches and Online Support
Sebastien uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take meaningful steps even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - a useful approach for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy forms the relational foundation of Sebastien's work, emphasizing empathic listening and respect so clients can explore their experience at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is employed to identify and adjust unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical strategies for depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and coping with day-to-day challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sebastien collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adjusting the blend of techniques as the work evolves. This collaborative stance aims to keep therapy relevant and responsive.
Online sessions - whether by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - provide flexibility and easier access to ongoing support. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments, while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care and adapt session formats to what helps the client engage most effectively.
