How Andrew Uses Approaches Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities. Online sessions let Andrew respond to what matters most and shape goals together in a conversational way. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily sensations to reduce reactivity, which can be practiced during video or phone sessions through guided exercises.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Andrew will talk with clients about goals, try methods together, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaboration helps choose whether to emphasize awareness, motivation, or short-term problem solving.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls work well for guided exercises and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a camera-free option is preferred. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins, brief planning, and ongoing support between longer meetings, which can make therapy easier to fit into busy days.
