Background and approach

He brings wide professional experience to sessions, including past roles in healthcare settings and business leadership. That background shapes how he talks about career stress, financial strain, and caregiver responsibilities. He also addresses grief, trauma and abuse, substance-related struggles, and sleep or anger problems.

Dr. Chusid commonly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive approaches and solution-focused ideas to help people change unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. He blends methods to match each person’s needs and preferences.

Sessions aim to be concrete, with clear steps to practice between meetings. People who are juggling work, family, health concerns, or caregiving often find this practical style useful. He guides conversations about relationship strain, parenting stress, impulsivity, and workplace issues.

The emphasis is on usable strategies people can apply right away.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Dr. Chusid commonly uses cognitive approaches and solution-focused ideas to help people manage anxiety and stress. Cognitive approaches look at thoughts that fuel worry and teach practical ways to test and change them. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on small, realistic steps and on what is already working in a person’s life.

He blends these methods to create a plan that fits each person’s needs. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter, simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, homework support, or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options help people fit care into busy schedules and varied lifestyles.
