Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Bethany commonly integrates client-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness practices to support people in online sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens and helps clients explore their feelings and goals - this is useful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and improving relationships. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on identifying practical steps and small, achievable changes that move a person toward their desired outcomes - it often helps with stress, coping with life changes, and short-term problem solving. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and skills to reduce reactivity and manage difficult emotions, which can be especially helpful for anxiety, trauma-related responses, and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Bethany works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore options, try strategies, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Bethany is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations and to keep continuity of care during busy or changing life circumstances.
