How Brandon’s approaches translate to online therapy
Brandon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that worsen stress and low mood. CBT breaks problems into small steps and teaches practical skills to try between sessions.He also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on clear, short-term goals and concrete actions you can test quickly. Internal Family Systems is used to name and understand the different parts of the self that hold worry, shame, or protective habits so they can be treated with curiosity rather than judgment.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Brandon will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit their needs. He views therapy as a collaborative process and adjusts the plan based on what helps.
