How Aaron uses CBT, Narrative, and Solution-Focused work online
Aaron draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active. CBT sessions often include practical exercises, short experiments to test new ways of thinking, and clear steps to reduce anxiety or low mood.Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from the problem by examining the stories they tell about their lives. This approach can be useful for identity questions, relationship patterns, and recovering a sense of agency after difficult experiences.
Solution-Focused Therapy is brief and goal-directed. It focuses on what is already working, setting small achievable goals, and building momentum through repeated small changes. This can suit people who want concrete steps for the next week or month.
Figuring out the best approach is a shared task. Aaron will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. From there he suggests methods and adjusts as therapy progresses so the work stays practical and collaborative.
