Integrating Client-Centered Care and CBT for Online Support



Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their feelings and values. This approach is useful for people working through relationship concerns, grief, or challenges with self-esteem because it emphasizes understanding and personal growth.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often effective for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes by teaching specific strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Lockton works with clients to evaluate their needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods accordingly so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single technique.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for those who cannot attend in-person appointments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different therapeutic tools, and access licensed professionals from convenient locations.
