Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Care

Anthony uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns and focuses on practical skills and measurable steps. He also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness for clients who need tools to manage intense emotions or relationship challenges. Motivational Interviewing is another tool he uses to support people who are ambivalent about change by exploring values and strengthening personal motivation.

Finding the right mix of methods is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then tailor a plan that may draw from one or more approaches rather than relying on a single technique. This collaborative decision making helps ensure therapy fits the person and the problem at hand.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options allow clients to engage in skill work, coaching, and reflective conversation from varied locations and at times that suit their schedules, making it easier to maintain consistency and progress over time.
