About Troy
He uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy guides the pacing of work so the client’s needs lead the way. He also integrates elements of existential thinking and mindfulness when they fit a person’s goals.
Troy has a background in assessment and community outreach, including co-founding an addiction recovery program. That experience informs practical work on addiction, family problems, and the emotional effects of childhood disruptions. He combines a direct, goal-focused style with acceptance and empathy.
Sessions often focus on clear steps you can try between meetings, such as practicing new communication habits or changing daily routines. He helps people tackle issues like anger, relationship strain, parenting stress, and adjustment after major life changes.
People who choose Troy can expect collaborative planning and straightforward feedback. He encourages resilience and practical change while listening for what matters most to each person.
How his approaches fit into online therapy
Troy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and testing small changes to improve mood and reduce anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a trusting relationship so the client sets the pace and priorities.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress and new concerns emerge.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists and licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and reflective conversations effectively in remote sessions, and Troy aims to tailor each session so it fits day-to-day routines.
