Background and approach
In sessions he works collaboratively and uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. That means he helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. He also teaches skills for managing strong emotions and handling conflict more calmly.
Thaddeus keeps meetings focused and practical. Sessions often include short skill practice, talking through real situations, and setting small goals to try between meetings. He encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who choose him usually want clear steps to reduce anxiety, improve communication, or regain motivation. He welcomes international clients who prefer English and offers flexible online formats. Signing up starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time to begin.
How CBT and DBT work in online therapy
Thaddeus uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT breaks problems into small parts so someone can test new responses and reduce anxiety or low mood one step at a time. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on teaching practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, such as distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and improved communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and needs, then try methods that make sense for them. That collaborative planning means adjustments can be made as progress unfolds so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can fit during a work break or when bandwidth is low, live chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short updates or skill practice between meetings. These options help people fit regular work on stress and anxiety into busy lives.
