He also helps people manage grief, anger, and the ongoing effects of attachment difficulties.
His approach draws on Client-Centered and cognitive methods to identify unhelpful patterns and change behaviors. He uses narrative elements to help people reframe their stories and motivational techniques to support change around substance use or other addictive behaviors. Sessions are practical and focused on real-life problems.

How Steve applies proven methods during online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can identify their own goals. It helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and topics tied to family roles by prioritizing the client’s perspective and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical techniques to change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or relationship conflict.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful for anger, mood instability, and situations where learning new coping strategies is needed.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Steve will help clients decide which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.
