Approaches Jeffery lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Dr. Stevenson uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that affect feelings and behavior, then try different actions to change outcomes. Solution-Focused Therapy is goal-oriented and brief, emphasizing practical steps and small changes that move a person toward their priorities.He also draws on Internal Family Systems ideas to help people identify different internal parts and how those parts influence choices and relationships. That perspective can be useful for issues like attachment, shame, and grief where conflicting inner voices get in the way of change.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods to test. Over a few sessions they adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful and what produces progress.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier to fit into a lunch break. Live chat and messaging let people check in quickly, keep momentum between meetings, or update the therapist without scheduling a full session.
