Therapeutic approaches and online care
Stephen Dickerson draws from evidence-based methods to help clients identify goals and build practical skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - helping people reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and develop coping strategies for issues like anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and acceptance, teaching techniques that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation during times of distress. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation to change, often useful for addictions and lifestyle shifts.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Stephen works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, adapting methods as progress unfolds so the work feels tailored and effective for each person. He aims to create a plan that fits the client rather than forcing a single model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules and to access care across distances. These options allow clients to engage in consistent work with a licensed professional in ways that match their life and communication style.
