Evidence-Based Approaches, Delivered Online

Greg Hilgert, LCMHC, draws from practical, research-informed methods that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practicing new skills that support day-to-day coping with concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based approach often used for trauma and distressing memories. It helps clients process experiences in a structured way so they can feel less reactive and more grounded in the present. Greg also incorporates a client-centered foundation, which emphasizes respect for each person’s perspective and keeps sessions aligned with the client’s values, pace, and goals.

Because no two people need the same type of support, finding the right approach is part of the work. Greg collaborates with clients to clarify goals, track what is helping, and adjust the plan based on preferences and progress.

Online therapy can make it easier to stay consistent with care. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, or use live chat and text-based messaging for added flexibility between sessions. This range of options can support busy schedules, changing routines, and different communication styles.
