Narrative Therapy in this listing

Online session options
Approach-driven care through online sessions
Jacques uses Narrative work to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and then try small changes to those narratives. This helps when past patterns, shame, or recurring conflicts keep showing up. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to teach acceptance of difficult thoughts while choosing actions that match one’s values, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Jacques works collaboratively to figure out what fits a person’s needs and preferences. He will discuss goals, try practical techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most in day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversations and face-to-face connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t convenient. Live chat and text messaging allow for brief check-ins, homework follow-up, or support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, and travel schedules while keeping focus on practical progress.
