Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a common part of his work. He uses simple tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. This often helps with anxiety, mood, sleep, and addictive patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills also appear in his approach when emotion regulation and interpersonal problems are present. Mindfulness techniques are used to teach people how to calm their bodies and notice thoughts without reacting. Lawrence also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies to support change.
These methods help people clarify what matters most and build plans they can follow. He offers several online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to the listed process.
Practical approaches for online sessions
Lawrence often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behavior that increase anxiety or low mood, and testing small changes to see what helps. Client-Centered Therapy begins with listening closely to your concerns and building goals from your own priorities to guide each session.He also brings elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when strong emotions or relationship struggles come up. DBT skills teach clear techniques for managing intense feelings and improving communication, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to your needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting what you try if something does not fit. Clients and therapists check in about progress and make practical changes to the plan as they go.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for longer conversations and skill practice, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text can fit brief check-ins or short coaching moments, and messaging lets you send updates or questions between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try approaches that work for your schedule and comfort.
