How his approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience. Online sessions let Mordechai listen to what matters most and reflect it back so clients can notice patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions; in online work this often becomes short exercises and homework to try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions about focus and pacing are made together and adjusted as progress unfolds.
