Background and approach

Young adult issues, men’s concerns and questions about life purpose are common topics in his work. Chaz has spent a good deal of time studying cognitive and behavioural ideas. He follows principles from cognitive behavioural approaches and pays attention to how thoughts influence feelings and actions.

He believes learning clearer, more flexible ways of thinking can reduce distress. Although his work is grounded in cognitive behavioural ideas, he adapts his style to each person. Sessions are practical and focused on small, useful changes people can try between meetings.

Chaz aims for a straightforward, conversational tone and helps clients build skills they can use in daily life. He offers sessions in English and works with people across different cultures and gender identities. Chaz practices in Australia and has experience offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs.

How cognitive approaches translate to online therapy

Chaz works mainly from cognitive and behavioural ideas. He helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking. This approach is useful for anxiety, social phobia and low mood because it targets the thoughts that often keep distress going.

He also uses practical behavioural techniques such as graded exposure and activity scheduling. Graded exposure breaks feared situations into small steps to reduce avoidance. Activity scheduling helps rebuild routine and motivation when depression or stress has made daily life harder.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chaz will discuss options and adapt techniques to match a person's goals, needs and preferences. He treats the process as a collaboration and checks in about what is and isn't helpful.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, short reflections or when someone needs flexible support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments.
