Therapeutic approaches and online care with Gregory Egan

Gregory uses evidence-informed methods that focus on values, personal strengths and practical skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take action guided by personal values - this can support work with anxiety, stress and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore self-esteem, relationships and identity at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns by teaching concrete skills to manage symptoms and cope with challenges such as depression, anxiety and addictive behaviours.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gregory works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to identify which methods best match a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and he adapts the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make therapy more flexible and accessible, allowing people to fit support into busy schedules, attend from different locations, and use the communication style that feels most comfortable to them.
