Background and approach

In sessions he creates a nonjudgmental space for people to talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. He pays special attention to anxiety, panic attacks, attention challenges like ADHD, and recovering from traumatic events. Communication problems and questions about life purpose are also common topics he addresses.

Charles draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to shape the work. That means sessions will include practical skills, ways to manage intense emotions, and motivation-focused conversations to support change. He offers sessions in English and works with international clients.

Appointments can be scheduled for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what fits a client’s routine. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Charles uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; that approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and panic. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, which helps when feelings become overwhelming.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals and preferences and then collaborate on which methods to use. The plan can change over time as needs shift and progress is tracked together.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversations and practicing skills together. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, homework support, and ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, and childcare schedules and help keep momentum toward goals.
