Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, offering empathic listening and support so individuals can explore their values, build self-awareness, and work toward personal goals. It is especially helpful for self-esteem, life transitions, and personal growth.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with everyday challenges.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift emotional responses that affect relationships and attachment. It can be beneficial for grief, attachment-related concerns, and improving communication in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Ayotunde works collaboratively with each person and will discuss different methods to identify the best fit based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative exploration helps shape a tailored plan that feels meaningful to the individual.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone and shorter interactions via live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy schedules or life constraints. Working remotely still enables regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists, helping people access consistent care without geographic barriers.
