CBT and Relationship Work Online

Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT focuses on practical changes people can make day to day to reduce anxiety, panic, and depressive symptoms. Imago Relationship Therapy is used when relationship dynamics are a central issue; it teaches structured dialogue to improve connection and reduce conflict.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools to use and how to pace progress.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and working through exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text work well for quick questions, mood check-ins, or added support between longer sessions, and they let people fit therapy into busy schedules.
