Background and approach
He uses listening and practical tools to help people move toward their goals, and he welcomes discussing spiritual or faith-based values when that matters to a client. Roy draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person's perspective and on motivational interviewing to support change. Sessions commonly include goal-setting, exploring motivation, and building new habits to reduce addictive behaviors or improve relationships.
He keeps language plain and actionable so people can try things between sessions. His background includes military service in the United States Marine Corps, which contributes to his understanding of discipline, resilience, and transitions. That experience informs how he talks about structure, accountability, and recovery without judgment.
People often reach out for help with drug and alcohol addiction, process addictions, codependency, fatherhood questions, guilt and shame, or finding life purpose. Roy works to make next steps clear and manageable, one conversation at a time.
How his approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and priorities. Sessions center on the client's perspective, with the therapist reflecting what is said and helping the person identify their own goals. This approach is helpful for people who want a supportive space to sort through feelings about addiction, family roles, or parenting concerns.Motivational Interviewing is a practical way to strengthen a person's motivation to change. It uses guided conversation to explore ambivalence and build commitment to specific steps, which can be useful for reducing substance use or shifting compulsive behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest approaches and adjust them based on progress. That collaborative process helps match techniques to the client's needs.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for ongoing support between sessions or when a person prefers writing over talking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep momentum toward change.
