Online support

How Collin uses proven approaches in online therapy

Collin often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and change the patterns that keep them stuck in painful relationship cycles. EFT focuses on emotions and attachment needs, and it can be useful for improving closeness and resolving conflicts.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions follow the client’s pace and priorities. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and supporting the client’s own insights. For clients working through trauma, Collin may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a method that helps reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Collin will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then recommend which methods to try. He treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts the plan based on what is helping.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls let the therapist and client meet face to face from different places. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief updates, coaching-style support, and keeping momentum between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
