Online support

How his approaches translate to online care

Leo blends existential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and attachment-based ideas to shape online sessions. Existential therapy helps people talk through meaning, purpose, and life choices when things feel uncertain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety and coping. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect current stress and connection.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and what methods feel most useful. Together they adjust the plan over time so sessions stay relevant and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when scheduling permits. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can fit into busy days and help people keep momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
