Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Fariba integrates approaches that help people understand relationships, emotions, and thinking patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current emotional needs and patterns, and it can be useful for people struggling with trust, intimacy, or recurring relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy is a compassionate, non-directive approach that prioritizes the client’s experience - the therapist offers empathy and support while the client leads the pace and focus of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Fariba collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows adaptations over time as circumstances and priorities change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to consult from different locations, and to maintain continuity during life transitions. Working remotely with licensed professionals and therapists can make regular care more accessible while preserving the collaborative, goal-focused nature of in-person work.
