Evidence-Based Tools, Made Accessible Online

Richard Krebs draws from practical, skills-based methods that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practicing new ways of responding that better support day-to-day functioning. It is often used when people feel stuck in cycles related to anxiety, depression, panic, or stress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by learning to make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while still taking steps toward what matters most. This approach can be especially helpful during grief, life transitions, or when anxiety and self-criticism are getting in the way of relationships and goals. Richard also uses EMDR, a structured approach that helps clients process distressing experiences in a paced, organized way and can be relevant for trauma-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richard collaborates with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and then adjusts the therapy plan over time based on what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to stay consistent with therapy, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and get support in the format that feels most comfortable.
