Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their values and take small actions toward them. It is useful for coping with shame, grief, career decisions, and life changes. The Gottman Method centers on communication patterns and rebuilding connection; it can help when trust, conflict, or intimacy have become difficult. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and support, giving people a chance to tell their story and find their own direction.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. David will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring. The plan can change as work progresses so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls use less bandwidth, live chat can be a brief check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, school, or family responsibilities.
