About Billy
With 13 years of clinical practice and a long career in social work, he draws on straightforward methods to help people cope with life changes. Sessions focus on practical skills and habits that can reduce anxiety and lift mood. He also addresses challenges such as isolation, impulsivity, and relationship strain that come with midlife or transitions.
Billy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different responses. He combines that with Mindfulness Therapy to build calm, present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Together these approaches aim to make daily life feel more manageable.
He has particular experience supporting people with caregiving stress, aging and geriatric issues, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and veteran and Armed Forces issues. He also works with men dealing with midlife questions and social anxiety or phobia.
Sessions are conducted with respect for each person’s pace and values. He asks questions, listens closely, and helps craft small steps clients can try between meetings. To begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy process and schedule a time that fits your needs.

How CBT and Mindfulness Shape Online Care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying thoughts and habits that keep problems going and then testing new ways of thinking and acting. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful patterns that make daily tasks harder.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of the present moment. It often helps reduce stress, calm worry, and make choices less automatic.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try approaches that fit the person’s needs and adjust plans as progress is made.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed.
