Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Deborah Trent integrates client-centered work with cognitive and mindfulness-based techniques. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, collaboration, and respect for each person’s perspective, helping clients feel heard and supported while clarifying personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, panic, and many daily coping challenges. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and stress regulation through simple attention practices, useful for managing emotional reactivity and trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Deborah works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online sessions offer practical benefits for busy lives and varied circumstances. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients gain flexibility to meet with a licensed professional from different locations and at different times. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, stay engaged with treatment, and access support when scheduling or travel would otherwise be a barrier.
