His practice includes support for stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, bipolar concerns, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also helps with caregiver stress, communication problems, grief, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or low self-worth. The focus is on what matters to each person and on small steps that make a difference.
Dylan has five years of experience and practices in Louisiana. He works in a collaborative way, asking what a person hopes to change and tailoring strategies to those goals. Expect straightforward language, practical exercises, and a focus on building skills that fit everyday life.
People who prefer clear guidance and hands-on tools often find his approach useful. Dylan aims to meet each person where they are and to respect their pace while practicing techniques that support lasting change.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small, committed actions toward those values. It helps with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck by teaching ways to notice thoughts without being driven by them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It is useful for handling anger, mood swings, and high-stress moments by teaching breathing, distress tolerance, and communication strategies.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Dylan will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels doable, then try methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as someone learns what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is good when visual cues and a deeper conversation are needed. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for a check-in during a break. Live chat and text can be useful for shorter check-ins, homework guidance, or quick skill coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep practicing skills when they matter most.
