He also works with issues such as addictions, bipolar and depression symptoms, workplace challenges, and questions about life purpose.

How his approaches translate to online work
Saul uses client-centered methods to prioritize what matters most to each person; this means sessions focus on the client's goals and personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce problems like anger, stress, or anxiety. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and building commitment in small, concrete steps.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Saul will collaborate with clients to choose or combine methods based on their goals, preferences, and how they respond in early sessions. That collaborative process helps tailor the plan without promising a single solution.

It can also let someone continue consistent work when life changes make in-person visits difficult. Ask about languages and any practical details when you schedule so sessions match your routine.
