Gerald provides remote care using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow for continuity of work while using approaches that match the concerns presented, including stress, anxiety, parenting, depression, ADHD, and addictions. International clients are accepted. 

With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gerald helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and works with clients to develop practical strategies for change. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building on the client’s own understanding of their situation. Together these methods support collaborative problem solving and goal setting during online sessions. 

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how past and current relationship patterns affect emotions and interactions. In remote appointments, Gerald seeks to partner with clients to examine these patterns and to apply new insights within the context of daily life. Communication can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on client preference.
