How Wesley Uses CBT and Motivational Interviewing Online
Wesley commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people make practical changes. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and tackle unhelpful habits. Motivational Interviewing focuses on finding a person’s own reasons for change and building motivation to follow through, which can be useful for addictions, career shifts, or when motivation feels low.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Wesley will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. He treats approach selection as a collaborative process and adjusts plans if something isn’t helping.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy schedules, allows shorter check-ins during a break, and saves travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to practice skills between meetings and bring real-life problems into conversation for immediate troubleshooting. Wesley will help tailor the session structure to match practical needs and day-to-day routines.
