He has worked with people affected by abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, and attachment-related challenges.

How attachment, CBT, and mindfulness fit into online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and emotional responses. Online sessions can help identify attachment patterns and practice new ways of relating and asking for needs to be met. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In remote sessions CBT can be used to spot unhelpful thoughts, test new behaviors, and build small experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. These skills are often used alongside other techniques to manage stress, cravings, and emotional overwhelm. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling around work or caregiving, fewer travel interruptions, and the ability to continue consistent sessions during life changes.
