An uses a mix of talking approaches. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centred listening to help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas are also part of his work when it helps people understand their past and current relationships.
In sessions he focuses on practical steps as well as exploration. That can mean testing out small behaviour changes, learning new ways to talk about problems, or looking at personal stories that shape how someone feels. He aims to help people manage symptoms and find clearer ways to respond to stressors.

He can work with people facing family-of-origin problems, attachment concerns and domestic violence related issues.

How his approaches work in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, stress and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms like low mood or panic. Client-Centred Therapy centres on respectful listening and reflecting so people can speak openly and arrive at their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how a method might fit the problem. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Therapists commonly use talking, homework tasks and practical experiments in remote sessions to support change without promising a specific format.
