Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care



Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes understanding how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and helps people develop safer, more secure connections; it can be useful for those struggling with relationship trust, intimacy, and family dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathic, nonjudgmental environment where the client’s own goals and values guide progress; this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and motivation for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, helping with anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. David Rice collaborates with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and recommends methods that fit each individual. He works alongside clients to adjust strategies as progress unfolds so therapy remains focused and relevant.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support while balancing life commitments. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, allow ongoing skill practice between sessions, and help maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not practical for the client or their family.
