Background and approach

He also has substantial experience supporting people through trauma and its aftereffects. That background shapes how he approaches anxiety, grief, and patterns that interfere with daily life. In sessions he listens closely and keeps the conversation grounded.

He uses client-centered methods to follow the person’s priorities while introducing skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. EMDR is also part of his work with trauma when appropriate for a person’s needs. He has supported people dealing with depression, obsessive behaviors, bipolar spectrum concerns, and a wide range of interpersonal difficulties.

He also helps with intimacy-related issues, body image, parenting stress, and career challenges. His approach blends practical skill-building with attention to life story and personal meaning. Shlomo aims to make starting therapy straightforward.

He encourages people to name one or two goals at the start so sessions can focus on what matters most. He believes steady progress comes from small, consistent steps and practical tools that fit everyday life.

How specific approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities so sessions address what feels most important. It helps people gain clarity about goals and feel heard during difficult conversations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by giving clear exercises and homework to practice between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when strong emotions or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review a person's needs and preferences and suggest methods that make sense for their goals. Plans can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work, and live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. Those options make it easier to use therapy tools in real life and keep work moving forward.
