Online support
Approaches for change and how online therapy helps
Philip uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT teaches practical exercises you can use between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve daily functioning.He also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their reasons for change and build internal motivation. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about decisions like cutting back on substances or trying a new routine.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Philip will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then adapt techniques to fit what feels most useful. The plan can shift as progress is made or new challenges appear.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make work on these approaches flexible. Video is helpful for a full conversation and skills coaching, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text can be used for shorter check-ins, homework support, or quick coaching between sessions.
