Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Tommi-Jai uses the Gottman Method to help people understand patterns that undermine trust and communication in close relationships. Gottman-focused work often involves clear skills for talking and reconnecting, and it helps people repair everyday interactions.He also uses client-centered therapy which emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client’s lead. That approach helps people feel understood and explore what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thinking and build new, more effective habits; CBT works well for anxiety, mood shifts, and stress management.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. He will talk with each person about goals, concerns, and preferences, then recommend techniques and a plan to try together. That decision is collaborative and revisited as needed to match changing needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and relationship work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quicker check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between appointments. These options help fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules while keeping progress steady.
