Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Dr. Craig Landry integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to support clients in an online setting. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so the therapist and client work together to explore values and goals and to strengthen self-understanding. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to improve daily functioning.

He also uses motivational interviewing when clients face ambivalence about change - a conversational approach that helps clarify personal reasons for change and builds motivation. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Landry collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps shape an individualized plan that can adjust over time.

Online therapy with Dr. Landry is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for scheduling and communication. These options make it easier to access care from different locations and to fit sessions into busy lives while maintaining the continuity of therapeutic work.
