How his approaches translate to online work
Paul uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening space where clients set the pace and topics. This approach focuses on understanding each person's experience and supporting their priorities, which can work well in remote sessions.He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and how early bonds affect current connections. These conversations often involve noticing feelings and interaction habits and can be done effectively in an online appointment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used for hands-on tools that address anxiety, stress, and unhelpful thinking by testing beliefs and practicing new behaviors between meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Paul will talk with each client about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit those aims. Adjustments are made over time so work stays practical and relevant.
