Remote sessions and therapeutic methods
Justin offers online care using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving people multiple ways to engage depending on preference and circumstance. He applies a mix of approaches to structure remote work and keep it focused on the issues a person brings.
Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, he helps clients clarify values and take committed actions aligned with what matters to them, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to examine and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns. Trauma-Focused Therapy is incorporated when past traumatic experiences are central, with attention to pacing and stabilization to match each person’s needs.
Sessions are collaborative: Justin works with people to set goals, choose techniques that fit their style, and adjust the plan over time. The combination of practical tools and options for synchronous or asynchronous contact aims to support steady progress across a range of concerns documented in his practice.
