Therapeutic tools that translate well to online sessions
Kirk Murdock draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be especially practical in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and replacing them with more workable strategies, which many people find useful for concerns like stress, anxiety, anger, and mood-related challenges.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by learning to make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that align with personal values. This approach can support people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or pulled off course by worries, cravings, or painful experiences.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative style that strengthens motivation for change by exploring ambivalence with compassion and respect. It can be helpful when someone wants to shift habits, including patterns related to addiction or other coping behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kirk works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want from therapy, what has or has not helped in the past, and what pace feels realistic, then adjusts the plan accordingly.
Online therapy also offers flexibility. Sessions can happen through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access support and stay consistent even with a busy schedule or changing circumstances.
