Evidence-Based Approaches, Delivered Online with Flexibility

Richard Krebs draws from several structured, skills-based methods that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and shifting behaviors that keep anxiety, depression, and stress cycles going. It often includes practical exercises that clients can apply between sessions to support steady progress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while taking steps toward what matters most. This approach can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and the emotional weight that can come with grief or ongoing stress. Richard Krebs also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a trauma-informed approach that helps people process distressing experiences in a structured way when trauma or painful memories continue to feel “present.”

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richard Krebs collaborates with clients to choose strategies that fit their goals, preferences, and current challenges, adjusting along the way as needs change.

Online therapy can make support easier to access and simpler to maintain in a busy schedule. Sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering options for different comfort levels and day-to-day demands.
