Evidence-Informed Approaches for Effective Online Therapy

Adam "Brent" Stamey uses approaches grounded in practical, solution-focused work and trauma care to support change and healing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on setting concrete goals and building on existing strengths to create rapid, achievable change - it works well for relationship issues, coping with life changes, and practical problem solving. Trauma-Focused Therapy attends directly to the effects of traumatic experiences, helping clients process painful memories and develop coping skills to reduce trauma-related symptoms and improve relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. He collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting strategies over time as progress unfolds. The process is collaborative and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy provides flexibility in how clients connect - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care across locations, and access help from a licensed professional in a format that feels most comfortable.
