Dr. Cindy George integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship that helps people explore their feelings and values so they can make choices that fit their life goals.

DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving communication in relationships. In her approach, choosing the right therapeutic method is collaborative - she works with each person to determine which combination of techniques best matches their needs, goals, and preferences.
