Online support

How Troy’s methods translate to online care

Troy uses approaches that help people think about problems, feel understood, and make practical changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches straightforward tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance to help someone feel understood and to build trust in the therapeutic relationship. Existential Therapy examines questions of meaning, choice, and values and can help people facing emptiness, life changes, or questions about purpose.

Choosing the right method is a team effort. Troy will work with each person to identify which approaches match their goals and preferences. That means checking in about what helps, adjusting techniques over time, and keeping sessions aligned with the client’s priorities.

Online sessions can make regular therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer short, immediate ways to check in between scheduled appointments. These options provide flexibility so therapy can continue around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
