Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Therapy

John Molden uses approaches that focus on values, relationships, and practical thinking to help clients move forward. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match what matters most - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and helps clients develop more secure ways of relating, which is helpful for relationship struggles, trauma recovery, and self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them, often benefiting depression, anxiety, and coping with daily stressors.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. John collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy lives or connect across distances. These options support continuity of care and make it possible to work with licensed professionals from wherever you are.
