Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and the ways early connections shape current emotional patterns. It helps people understand how past attachments influence trust, intimacy, and family dynamics so they can build healthier connections and respond differently in relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client's own expertise. In this approach the therapist offers support and reflection while clients work at their own pace to clarify values, set goals, and strengthen self-understanding.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT provides practical tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms, and develop coping strategies for daily challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is handled collaboratively. Betsy and other licensed professionals will consider a client’s goals, preferences, and history to determine which methods to prioritize, and they may combine techniques to best support progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from home, and maintain continuity when life circumstances change, while still working with trained therapists to address meaningful change.
