Approaches that guide online work and support
Garrett uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and self-understanding. One common approach involves learning to recognize and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns so daily stress and anxiety become easier to manage. This helps with panic symptoms, social anxiety, and recurring negative thoughts.Another focus is mood and emotion regulation work that teaches concrete coping strategies for intense feelings and impulsive reactions. These tools aim to reduce overwhelm and help people respond more calmly in stressful situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Garrett works collaboratively with each person to identify goals and try methods that match their needs and preferences. He checks in regularly and adjusts the work as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.
