Background and approach

He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to tailor sessions to each person's needs. Sessions tend to be interactive and goal-oriented, with clear steps to try between meetings. Justin listens for what matters most to each person and works together to shape a plan that fits daily life.

That can mean building coping skills for panic or anxiety, creating routines that help with sleep, or setting small goals to address addictive behaviors. He values straightforward language and concrete tools people can use right away. People who come to him often want practical strategies and steady support during life changes.

He also addresses trauma, relationship strain, intimacy-related concerns, anger, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and seasonal affective disorder when relevant. Therapy is an effort shared between therapist and client, and Justin emphasizes collaboration throughout. Sessions are offered in English.

He practices across several remote formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and communication style.

Approaches that guide online sessions

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress, sleep issues, and low mood by breaking problems into manageable steps and testing small changes.

DBT focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It can be useful for people who feel overwhelmed by strong emotions or who want tools to manage intense reactions and relationship strain.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps clarify goals and motivation for change. It works well when someone feels stuck about quitting an addictive behavior or making other important life changes.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, then try methods that fit your needs. Treatment can be adjusted as you learn what helps and what does not.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets you use visual cues for skill practice, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging helps keep progress going between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or school schedules while keeping the focus on practical strategies and steady support.
