His background includes long-term recovery and work in both outpatient and inpatient settings, which informs his practical approach to coping and relapse prevention. Sessions can include coaching-style work and skill building alongside therapeutic exploration. He helps people create a clear plan, then supports steps toward chosen goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Dr. Spaulding commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in his online practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of behavior to reduce anxiety and improve mood. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and build actions that align with those values, which can reduce avoidance and increase meaningful effort.He also incorporates client-centered principles, which means sessions center on the person's experience and pace. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single approach.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain regular contact while working toward change.
