He practices in Texas and offers several online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

The focus is on helping each person build resilience and find concrete steps toward the changes they want.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Gerald uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on skills and coping. One common approach is skills training that teaches concrete ways to reduce anxiety and manage stress, such as breathing techniques, grounding exercises, and step-by-step plans for difficult moments. These tools are useful for people who want practical strategies they can try between sessions.Another frequent focus is communication work, which involves practicing how to express needs and set boundaries. This approach helps with relationship strain and conflicts by breaking problems into manageable steps and rehearsing new responses. It can reduce misunderstandings and help rebuild trust.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Gerald works with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts the plan as progress is made and as life circumstances change, so the work stays relevant and usable.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people connect face to face when schedules allow. Phone can be a quicker check-in or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep consistent momentum toward change.
