Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and connection. It helps clients identify attachment styles, repair interpersonal ruptures, and build more secure ways of relating to partners and family members.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety, panic, or depressive patterns. It emphasizes practical skills and structured work to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that assists people in processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity, often used when past events continue to disrupt present life. Steven is trained in EMDR and integrates it when appropriate.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Steven collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists use this collaborative process to tailor care to each person.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support around work, caregiving, or geographic limitations. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to continue therapy from familiar settings while working toward meaningful change.
