How Curtis’ approaches translate to online work
Curtis practices Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the client's experience and priorities and relies on active listening and empathy to guide each session. This approach helps when the goal is to process feelings, clarify values, or rebuild motivation.He also draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches skills to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives concrete strategies to practice between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities, offering tools for managing intense feelings and improving communication.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process. Curtis works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting methods as progress is made. The plan is shaped by the client's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.
The practical advantage of doing this work online is that it can fit into busy schedules and allow consistent check-ins across distances. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to keep appointments, follow through on between-session practice, and involve shorter check-ins when needed.
