Online Therapeutic Approaches and Care
Carla Murray integrates proven therapeutic approaches into online sessions to meet clients where they are and address real-life concerns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space in which the client’s own strengths and goals guide the work - this approach supports personal growth, self-exploration, and decision-making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is practical and skills-focused, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, offering concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Carla works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the client’s changing circumstances.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent care amid busy schedules and life transitions. These formats offer flexibility in timing and communication style, allowing therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care and tailor interactions to what works best for each client.
