Background and approach
That often means looking at how past events, roles, and beliefs influence current choices. He also draws on attachment-focused work and client-centered methods to strengthen emotional understanding and connection. Sessions are conversational and grounded in real life.
People can expect straightforward strategies from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches when coping skills or emotional regulation are needed. At other times the focus is on unpacking meaning, values, and identity so change fits the person, not a template. Dr.
Hunt describes therapy as a collaborative process. He listens for patterns that cause pain and helps people test new ways of relating to themselves and others. The aim is to build skills, increase self-awareness, and find clearer direction.

Online session options
How narrative and attachment work translate online
Dr. Hunt often blends Narrative Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered work. Narrative Therapy helps people see and rewrite the stories they tell about themselves, which can reduce shame and open new possibilities. Attachment work focuses on how early bonds shape emotional reactions and relationship patterns, which can help people feel and respond differently in close relationships. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and nonjudgmental listening so people feel heard while they sort things out.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. He works collaboratively to learn a person's goals and preferences, then tests methods together to see what helps. That means sessions can shift from storywork to skill practice depending on what the client needs that week.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people connect face to face when interpersonal work is important. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a short check-in during a workday. Live chat and messaging are useful for ongoing support, brief reflections, or practicing new ways of describing experiences between sessions. These options aim to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the work focused and practical.
