Background and approach
Before counseling he spent ten years in law enforcement, experience he now uses to inform resilience and coping work. He often works with issues related to trauma, PTSD, and first responder stress. In sessions he uses clear, down-to-earth techniques.
Cognitive behavioral work helps people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts. Dialectical behavior therapy offers skills for emotion regulation and crisis coping. He also draws on mindfulness, breathing exercises, and guided relaxation when those fit the need.
Clients can expect a collaborative approach where goals are practical and measurable. Brandon encourages exploration of personal values and spiritual meaning when clients want that direction. He aims to teach skills people can use outside sessions to manage day-to-day challenges.
Therapy sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. He practices from Utah and conducts sessions in English. The overall focus is on building coping skills, improving mood, and helping people reconnect with what matters to them.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and values. It prioritizes listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace to help them make choices that fit their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can ease anxiety and low mood. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, useful for intense emotions and recurring crises.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and then choose or combine methods that seem most helpful. This is a collaborative process aimed at building skills and meeting practical goals rather than fitting clients into a single label.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls let people have a full conversation and see facial cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep regular momentum toward their goals.
