Background and approach

Gottman-informed methods guide work on communication and relationship patterns. Justin has worked with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, addictions, and trauma and abuse. He also supports people facing family and parenting strains, grief, intimacy concerns, and issues around self-esteem and coping with life changes.
He brings experience with attachment, adoption and foster care matters, and fatherhood issues. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Justin helps people set realistic steps and track progress.
He encourages curiosity about what works and what needs adjusting, and stays open-minded while people move toward their goals.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel understood and decide their own goals, which translates well to video or phone sessions where conversation is central.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change them. It is helpful for anxiety, depression, phobias, and stress, and works well with homework tasks that can be assigned and reviewed between online sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. People learn concrete techniques for distress tolerance and emotion regulation that can be practiced during and between sessions offered remotely.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, then recommend approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are expected as therapy proceeds.
Online sessions offer flexibility in how care is delivered. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a shorter break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins, written reflections, or ongoing support between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to continue steady progress without long commutes.
