Motivational interviewing is used when people want to change habits like substance use or other process behaviors. The focus is on small, realistic steps clients can try between sessions.

Roosevelt practices in California and conducts sessions in English. He accepts international clients and uses his life experience to inform a respectful, person-focused style.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgment. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects feelings, and helps clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Online CBT can include setting small goals, tracking thoughts, and practicing skills between sessions. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change habits like substance use or other process behaviors, using gentle questions and collaborative planning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. That plan can change as progress is made, and decisions about techniques are made collaboratively.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life by removing travel time, letting people meet from wherever they are that day, and offering shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also allow continuity of care across locations for international clients. Ask about current session options when scheduling to find what works best for your routine.
