How his approaches translate to online work
Rick commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce distress and build confidence. Motivational Interviewing focuses on clarifying a person's own reasons for change and strengthening their motivation to take steps forward.
Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and past attempts at change, and then recommend a plan that combines approaches as needed. Goals and techniques are revisited over time to keep the work practical and relevant.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue therapy when relocating or when daily life makes in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, homework, and conversation to phone or video sessions to keep progress moving forward.
