Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Bradley Charbonneau uses established methods to help clients address anxiety, panic, and self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors - it helps people reduce anxiety and alter the responses that maintain panic and avoidance. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that explores ambivalence and strengthens a person’s own motivation to change, which can be especially useful for addictive behaviors and stages of readiness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Bradley works with each client to determine what combination of techniques best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance allows clients to try strategies and adjust direction as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Bradley is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support from home or other convenient settings while working toward meaningful change.
