Approaches you can use in online sessions
Joseph often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. It focuses on practical experiments and skill practice that can be done between sessions.He also draws on motivational interviewing to help people resolve mixed feelings about change. This approach uses targeted questions and reflections to strengthen motivation for steps like cutting back on substances or starting healthier routines.
Finding the right approach is a joint effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has worked before, then try strategies and adjust as needed. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits daily life.
Online therapy offers flexibility for ongoing work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions provide a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or homework follow-up. Together these formats make it easier to fit consistent work into a busy schedule and to practice new skills between sessions.
