Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christine Busch uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes understanding each person's experience and strengths; this method focuses on active listening and respect for the individual's perspective while helping them set meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is also part of her practice - it involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies and exercises that reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. She may also use solution-focused techniques, which concentrate on identifying small, achievable steps to move forward and build momentum toward clients' goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Christine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility by making it possible to meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and support consistent engagement with licensed professionals and therapists, helping clients access care in ways that fit their daily lives.
