Teletherapy and remote treatment options
Joseph Heggins uses several therapeutic frameworks that translate to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is presented in straightforward terms as a way to identify patterns of thinking and behavior and develop practical skills for managing symptoms. Internal Family Systems is described as a model for exploring inner parts and how they relate to one another, helping clients map internal dynamics and develop self-led responses. Motivational Interviewing is used to explore ambivalence and support client-driven change, particularly around substance use and habit-related concerns. These approaches are described as collaborative: the therapist and client set goals together, test strategies, and adjust plans based on experience and feedback. Remote sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Communication options are listed so clients can choose the format that fits their circumstances and the pace at which they wish to engage.What is Joseph Heggins' clinical experience?
