About John

Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and straightforward, with an emphasis on what helps most in day-to-day life. He draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how feelings influence relationships and personal struggles.

Mindfulness and existential ideas can come into play to support meaning and present-moment coping. With five years of experience, John has helped people with a wide range of concerns, including addictions, trauma, grief, parenting strain, career stress, and issues related to identity, including LGBT concerns. He also works with people facing attention differences, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue.

Online support
Emotion and skill-based therapy online
John often blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with feelings that shape relationships and personal patterns, which can help with grief, intimacy challenges, and trauma-related issues. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the persons own priorities and experiences, offering a respectful, listening-based style that supports self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful behaviors.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest a path that can be adjusted over time. This collaborative process helps match methods to what a person wants to change and how they prefer to work.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful for full conversations and emotional work, phone can be lower bandwidth or more convenient, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief reflections between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and varied routines.
