Therapeutic approaches and online therapy with James Harvey
James commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening to each person without judgment and supporting them to access their own strengths and solutions; this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life changes. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress. When appropriate, psychodynamic ideas inform his work by exploring how past experiences and relationships influence present feelings and patterns, which can be valuable for resolving deeper trauma or longstanding relational issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. James works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and needs, adapting techniques over time as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to each person’s priorities and pace.
Online therapy with James offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, travel, or living in a different country. Registered professionals and therapists can effectively use these formats to maintain continuity of care and make therapy accessible to people with diverse schedules and circumstances.
