Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Many of Kendon’s sessions use evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building coping skills. Cognitive-oriented work helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking to reduce distress and improve confidence. Grounding and stabilization techniques teach simple, repeatable strategies to manage strong emotions and responses after trauma or during grief.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kendon works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s goals, comfort level, and daily routine. He checks in regularly and adjusts strategies based on what is working and what needs to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in fits the schedule. Live chat and text allow shorter, more frequent check-ins and can be easier to fit around work or caregiving. Together these options offer flexibility and make it simpler to keep therapy consistent over time.
