Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Therapy
Cynthia Terrell integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to each person's experience and building a collaborative, empathic relationship that supports exploration and personal growth. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and gentle self-observation, which can be especially helpful for emotional regulation and coping with trauma-related distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Cynthia helps clients determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She works collaboratively with clients to combine methods as appropriate, adjusting the plan over time to reflect progress and changing priorities.
