Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Patrick integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping individuals notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to take action guided by personal values - an approach often helpful for anxiety, avoidance, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) concentrates on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors; it teaches practical strategies to address unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new coping skills that can improve mood, sleep, and everyday functioning.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method used to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, which can aid recovery from traumatic experiences and abuse.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Patrick collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals can deliver these approaches effectively through online formats.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments and to maintain continuity of care during life transitions.
