Curtis takes a straightforward, person-focused approach. Sessions look at what is happening now and what patterns came from earlier life.

People bring problems like communication breakdowns, anger, shame, and difficulty coping with life changes.
He combines several well-known methods in session. That can include building awareness of thoughts and behaviors, learning skills to manage intense emotions, and processing painful memories. EMDR may be part of work with trauma when appropriate. The work is usually paced to match a client's comfort and goals.
Curtis also addresses role changes such as fatherhood, separation, or merging households. He talks through issues like loyalty conflicts, co-parenting with an ex, and finding routines in blended households. The focus is on practical steps people can try between sessions.
Across his career he has supported first responders and others facing high stress and repeated loss. Curtis helps people name what they are facing, practice coping tools, and set realistic next steps. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options.
Therapeutic approaches applied to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they can better understand their thoughts and feelings. It helps with building clarity about relationships and roles during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful reaction patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to process painful memories and can reduce the intensity of trauma symptoms when it fits a client's goals.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Curtis will help determine which methods to try based on a person's needs, goals, and preferences. He may blend elements from different approaches and check in regularly about how the work is progressing.
The biography does not specify exact session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - fewer trips, easier scheduling around work, and the ability to join from different locations. Some approaches translate well to shorter skill-focused check-ins while others may involve longer processing sessions. Discuss practical arrangements and pacing when you schedule the first meeting.
