Curtis aims to equip people with tools they can use outside of sessions. That might mean exercises between meetings, attention training, or step-by-step plans to handle difficult conversations. He frames therapy as an active collaboration where the person sets priorities and the therapist offers guidance and practical skills.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery
Dr. Curtis often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then move toward values-based actions even when worry or fear is present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Together you can adjust the plan as needed based on what helps most in real life.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people juggling busy schedules. Video calls let you keep face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or to fit brief conversations into a work break. These options make it simpler to maintain steady work on anxiety, stress, and other concerns from wherever you are located in Michigan.
