Online support
Emotion and Skill-Based Care Online
Greg often integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy in online work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting emotional patterns that affect relationships and intimacy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Greg will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that fit their goals, comfort level, and daily life. He adapts methods over time based on what helps, so therapy changes as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversations and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or to fit a shorter check-in. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers typing over speaking. These options make it easier to keep consistent sessions and apply new skills between meetings.
