About Solomon
Solomon believes people bring strengths and knowledge about themselves into each session. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where those strengths are noticed and put to use. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that match a person's values and daily life.
He uses approaches drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, and emotionally-focused ideas. That means conversations often look at patterns in relationships, what someone tells themselves about a situation, and ways to shift unhelpful habits. Solomon also draws on existential perspectives to help people find meaning when life feels uncertain.
Across 14 years of practice he has supported people with a wide range of concerns, including abandonment and attachment issues, chronic pain or illness, addiction, mood challenges, multicultural questions, and matters related to life purpose. He also has experience related to HIV and AIDS and issues connected to kink and alternative sex culture.
People who reach out can expect a down-to-earth approach. The work is collaborative and paced to the client's needs. Solomon aims to support clients as they build confidence, manage difficult feelings, and move through life changes with clearer direction.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Attachment-based work looks at how patterns from close relationships affect present feelings and reactions, helping people understand and change repeating cycles. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting a person's own decision-making so they feel heard and able to try new steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers clear, practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and happens together. Solomon will discuss goals, try methods that seem to fit, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaboration helps match techniques to real-life needs and values.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let someone move between approaches over time - for example using practical CBT tools one month and longer relational or existential conversations the next - based on what feels useful.
