How his approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Sottile commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in his practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns and testing small changes to see what helps. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s own goals and strengths, allowing conversations to follow what matters most to the client.He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation or intense reactions are part of the difficulty. DBT skillwork teaches practical ways to handle strong feelings, tolerate distress, and improve interpersonal effectiveness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and help decide which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking. The site process asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or caregiving, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed.
