Approaches that translate well to online care
Trevor combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in an easygoing way. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people uncover their own solutions; it suits worries about identity, relationships, and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.He also offers mindfulness-based techniques to help with stress and grounding, using short exercises to bring attention back to the present moment. These methods can reduce overwhelm and improve emotional awareness between sessions. Trevor will work collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deep conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or daily routines.
