Background and approach
His approach mixes practical techniques and warm listening. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Motivational Interviewing supports folks who are weighing change, especially around substance use.
The Gottman Method informs his work on relationships and communication. Justin also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping. Client-centered methods keep the person’s goals central and shape sessions around what matters most to them.
He adapts tools to fit a person's daily life and responsibilities. Clients can expect clear goals, skill-building exercises, and straightforward talk about setbacks. Justin emphasizes practical next steps and honest conversation.
He helps people rebuild confidence, set boundaries, and take manageable steps toward their goals.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Justin blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing with client-centered care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and find personal motivation, which can be especially useful for substance use and habit change.The therapist views finding the right approach as a joint process. He will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That collaborative decision helps shape the plan for sessions and the homework or practice between meetings.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well for longer check-ins and skill coaching, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, short chat or text can support quick check-ins or reflection between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules.
