How Scott uses evidence-based approaches online
Scott commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in straightforward ways that suit online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new actions to reduce worry, low mood, or compulsive behaviors. It often involves short exercises and homework between sessions to build new habits. DBT offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when feelings run high; these are taught step by step and practiced in-session.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Scott will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and daily routine. He mixes skill teaching, problem solving, and mindfulness practices based on what the client wants to focus on.
