How Brent’s approaches fit with online work
Brent uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening-focused space where people feel heard and able to set their own goals. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through relationship stress, life transitions, or feelings of shame.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic symptoms, and mood concerns because it breaks problems into manageable steps and specific skills.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Brent will work together with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That could mean more conversation and reflection for some, and structured CBT exercises for others.
