Background and approach

Bradley holds LCSW and CSW credentials and has worked in program administration, medical social work, and case management, which inform his organized, outcomes-minded style. His areas of focus include stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, eating and anger problems, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Additional interests include attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, BDSM and kink culture, gender dysphoria, and other communication or control-related concerns. Bradley also has experience related to cancer, domestic violence, and substance use challenges.

He offers group presentations and curriculum development on trauma and mental health topics and brings strong communication and program skills to his clinical work.

Integrating CBT and Acceptance-Based Care Online

Bradley commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill building, which can help with anxiety, mood, and stress-related difficulties. ACT centers on clarifying values and learning acceptance and mindfulness skills so clients can move toward meaningful life goals even when difficult feelings are present.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Bradley works with each person to explore which methods fit their needs and preferences, adjusting strategies over time based on progress and goals so that therapy remains tailored and practical.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, maintain continuity during life transitions, and use homework and in-the-moment coaching between meetings. Many clients find that a mix of synchronous and asynchronous contact supports steady progress while keeping scheduling convenient.
