Evidence-based approaches and online care
Durrett Bennett uses practical, evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful habits and building coping skills. One common approach emphasizes identifying and testing the thoughts that drive anxiety and stress, then practicing alternative ways of thinking and behaving to reduce distress. This helps with worry, low mood, and decision-making under pressure.Another approach centers on building concrete coping tools and routines to manage cravings, grief, or emotional overwhelm. That work includes small behavioral changes, problem-solving steps, and strategies to strengthen motivation and self-esteem. These methods are chosen to match the person's goals and daily life demands.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to choose techniques that fit their needs, goals, and what feels manageable. That may mean trying a few methods and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when possible, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
