Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's own experience and priorities, offering empathetic listening and support to help people explore feelings, clarify values, and make decisions. It is helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem work, and navigating life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related challenges by providing tools for symptom management and problem solving.
Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and recurring relationship patterns shape current emotions and reactions, which can be useful for deeper issues such as trauma, family of origin concerns, and persistent relational difficulties.
Choosing the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist collaborates with clients to determine which methods align with their goals, needs, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or caregiving responsibilities. These options increase access to licensed professionals and allow clients to engage in care in ways that fit daily life.
