Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Carol uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical, skills-based approach that helps people recognize and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and other mood-related concerns and focuses on concrete tools that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She also relies on Solution-Focused Therapy which emphasizes identifying clear goals, building on existing strengths, and creating small, achievable steps toward change. This approach is useful for people seeking focused, goal-driven work around life transitions, stress, and problem-solving.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Carol works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what is helping, what is not, and adjust the plan so progress aligns with the client’s priorities.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, balance work and family commitments, and continue care during transitions or busy periods while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship.
