How James Uses Therapy Approaches Online
James commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral changes to test new ways of coping, which can help with anxiety, panic, and stress. Motivational Interviewing centers on building a person’s own reasons to change and can be useful when someone feels stuck or unmotivated.He also uses Solution-Focused ideas to set short, practical goals that can be tried between sessions. This approach looks for small steps that make daily life easier and helps people see progress quickly.
Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose or mix methods that fit the situation and pace. That way the plan reflects what the person needs and what they feel ready to try.
