How his approaches translate to online work
Dr. Reiser commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while focusing on values and committed action to move forward. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the therapist follows the client's lead and builds on what matters most. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and insomnia.Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan together so the work fits the client's day-to-day life and aims.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy schedule, fewer interruptions related to travel, and the chance to use exercises and check-ins between meetings.
