Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Carla McKenney
Carla McKenney integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online practice.

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches practical skills to manage stress, anxiety, anger, and difficulties with attention.She also draws on motivational interviewing when clients are facing ambivalence about change; this approach uses guided conversation to strengthen a person's own motivation for taking steps toward goals. Carla works collaboratively with each client to determine which approaches fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.
