CBT and Talk Therapy Delivered Online

Ellen Grant uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a foundation for online work. CBT helps people identify patterns of thinking that contribute to stress and anxiety and then learn practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach is often helpful for managing mood concerns, anxiety, and everyday stressors.

She also draws on talk therapy principles, offering a reflective, conversational space to explore workplace and career issues, leadership concerns, and personal challenges. Talk therapy supports processing emotions, clarifying goals, and strengthening communication and coping strategies.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Ellen works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors methods so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single technique.

Online therapy formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, maintain continuity of care across transitions, and engage with licensed professionals from a range of locations while working toward meaningful change.
