Evidence-Informed Therapy Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Richard Turner, LPC, draws from approaches that can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, addictions, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practicing more workable responses day to day. It is often used to build coping skills and reduce the feeling of being stuck in the same cycle.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps aligned with what matters most. Rather than fighting every internal experience, ACT emphasizes values-based action and psychological flexibility, which can be useful during transitions or when anxiety feels overwhelming.
Attachment-Based Therapy can support clients who want to understand how early or ongoing relationship experiences shape trust, communication, and connection in the present. It can be relevant for family conflict, abandonment concerns, and relationship patterns that repeat over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richard collaborates with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before, then adjusts the focus as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to stay consistent even with a busy schedule or changing needs.
