Therapeutic approaches and online care
Mark often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. CBT sessions typically include specific exercises and homework to practice skills between meetings.He also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a method that helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. ACT tends to emphasize values-based goals and present-moment awareness to guide small, workable changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust those choices over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for fuller, face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and texting offer flexible ways to share progress or get support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep continuity when life gets in the way.
