He helps people facing relationship strain, anxiety, depression, substance concerns, parenting stress, grief, and aging and geriatric issues.

That can include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, and exploration from Jungian perspectives. The aim is to match methods to what each person needs and prefers.

Dr. Spaulding holds a doctorate in psychology and brings decades of clinical experience across inpatient and outpatient settings. He has worked with issues such as ADHD, trauma, intimacy concerns, caregiving strain, and career stress. His background includes work with addiction using familiar 12-step models.

People who meet with him can expect practical next steps and collaborative planning. He helps create a clear map for goals and offers coaching-style support when helpful. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them. It helps people who feel stuck by teaching ways to accept difficult thoughts while moving toward meaningful goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It uses practical tools to change unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication. It is often used when strong emotions or relationship conflict are a major concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can shift over time as progress is made.

If you prefer remote sessions, check the therapist's current session options before booking. Confirm what formats are offered and how scheduling works. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, and help maintain continuity when plans change.
