Dr. Mohamed Mulla, RI Psychologist PS01905

Dr. Mohamed Mulla uses a practical, problem-solving approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). He focuses on clear steps people can take to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and sleep better. He explains options plainly and helps clients build skills they can use between sessions.

He sees stress, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, and depression as things that respond to concrete strategies and steady support. He looks for small changes that lead to relief and clearer thinking. Sessions center on the person's goals and everyday challenges rather than labels.

Dr. Mulla also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to tailor care. That means he helps people notice what matters to them and builds on their own strengths. He helps people face difficult feelings while still moving toward a meaningful life.

He brings eight years of professional experience as a Rhode Island psychologist. In practice he uses tools like thought-behavior tracking, values-based exercises, and emotion regulation skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when useful. The session tone is direct and respectful, with a focus on practical progress.

People who worry about control issues, loneliness, caregiver stress, chronic illness, or relationship problems can find support for everyday coping. Dr. Mulla encourages small, consistent steps and works with each person to shape a plan that fits their life and priorities.

How CBT, ACT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Dr. Mulla commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and change reactive behavior. ACT emphasizes clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult feelings. Client-Centered Therapy offers an accepting, respectful stance that helps people speak freely and find their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and what methods feel most useful. That way the plan is collaborative and can combine elements from different approaches based on the person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this work. Video calls let the therapist and client use worksheets, practice breathing or grounding exercises, and watch behavior changes in real time. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick skill reminders, journaling prompts, or ongoing tracking between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and to apply new skills where life happens.
