Therapeutic approaches and online care
Dr. Bullock commonly uses cognitive behavioral work to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop different behaviors. CBT often focuses on small experiments and practical exercises to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT emphasizes values-driven actions so clients can move toward a life they care about even when emotions are uncomfortable.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then adapt methods to fit each person’s needs. The work is collaborative and paced to what feels manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work well for brief check-ins, homework support, or when people prefer typing to speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
