Approach-Focused Online Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress-related concerns by teaching practical skills to shift patterns that maintain distress.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings. Mindfulness can support stress reduction, emotional regulation, and increased self-compassion, which is helpful for issues like self-esteem, grief, and compassion fatigue.
Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and building on what already works. This brief, goal-oriented approach can be effective for clients seeking practical strategies for life transitions, parenting challenges, or relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Barbara collaborates with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works with clients to set realistic objectives and adjusts techniques as progress unfolds.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into a busy life. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and increase accessibility for clients across Michigan who prefer remote sessions with licensed professionals.
