How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Dr. Mercier commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in his work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the client leads the topics and the therapist reflects what’s important. It helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and finding personal direction. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the impact of past hurts and stressful events, with practical steps to manage upsetting memories and reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. He will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those needs. Together they review what’s working and adjust the plan if needed, so the approach can change as progress happens.

Confirm the current session options before booking. When offered, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or making scheduling across different routines simpler.
