Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Aletha uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals and values guide the work; this approach emphasizes empathy and collaboration and is useful for many concerns including self-esteem and life transitions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT can be helpful for anxiety, stress, anger, and mood-related difficulties by teaching practical skills for managing symptoms.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on building small, concrete steps toward desired changes and is especially useful when clients want to move quickly toward specific goals or cope with immediate life challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Aletha will discuss options with each person, consider their needs and preferences, and adapt methods over time so the plan fits the client’s goals and pace.

Online therapy with Aletha is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, manage ongoing care around work or family commitments, and maintain continuity of support when in-person visits are difficult.
