Approach-Focused Online Therapy with an Integrative Emphasis
Paul blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to shape online sessions that meet each person where they are. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful action - it is often useful for anxiety, low motivation, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relational patterns and how they influence current relationships and emotional responses - it can be helpful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and relationship conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and the client’s own capacity to find solutions, creating space for self-exploration and personal growth.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Paul collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting the mix of techniques as the relationship and needs evolve. This collaborative process supports clearer goals and more relevant interventions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit changing schedules and energy levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, engage from different locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for the client.
