How narrative and practical methods work online
Jason commonly blends narrative therapy and client-centered work to help people rewrite the stories that shape their feelings and choices. Narrative therapy focuses on separating the person from problems so they can see and change unhelpful storylines. Client-centered therapy centers the session on the person's goals and experience, offering listening that guides whatever the client wants to address.He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques when someone wants concrete skills to manage thinking and behavior. CBT-style tools can help with anxiety, sleep issues, anger, and coping with life changes by teaching specific strategies to test and shift patterns. Together these approaches give both reflective space and practical steps.
Finding the right mix is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try different methods, and adjust based on what helps most. Online formats make this collaboration easier to fit into daily life.
Sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messages allow ongoing short reflections. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, pacing, and how someone prefers to communicate.
