Online support
How therapeutic approaches fit online care
Terry often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises, which can help with anxiety, depression, and addiction triggers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand and change how they respond to strong emotions, which can be useful for intimacy and relationship problems.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Terry works with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. He blends techniques as needed and checks in regularly to see what is working and what should change.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for fuller conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or multitasking matters, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, handle quick updates, and continue work even when in-person meetings are not possible.
