  2. How Gene’s approaches work in online therapy

    Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way of talking that helps people find their own reasons to make changes. It focuses on building motivation and resolving mixed feelings about steps like quitting substances, changing habits, or pursuing new goals. Client-centered therapy puts the person’s experience at the center of each session. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client’s lead so work stays focused on what the client values and wants to change.

    Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Gene works with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts the approach as needs evolve. This is a cooperative effort where the client’s priorities guide each phase of work.

    Gene offers virtual telemental health counseling, so you can often fit sessions into a busy week without extra travel. Before booking, confirm the current session options and scheduling details. Online work can make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions, schedule therapy around work or caregiving, or keep regular check-ins while managing health concerns.
