Online sessions and therapeutic approach
Troy uses Solution-Focused and mindfulness interventions to structure many online sessions. Solution-Focused work emphasizes setting concrete, short-term goals and identifying small, practical steps a person can take. Mindfulness interventions invite attention to present-moment experience and breath-based or awareness practices that can be woven into conversations about stress and coping.
He also integrates principles from Emotionally-Focused and client-centered approaches to explore emotions and attachment themes when they arise. Those methods create space to notice patterns in relationships and to process emotional responses while keeping the collaborative relationship central to the work.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Troy aims to meet people where they are and to tailor the blend of approaches so the format and interventions align with each person’s preferences and goals.
