Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
George Brassea draws from several established approaches to tailor online therapy to each person’s needs. Attachment-Based Therapy examines patterns of connection formed in early relationships and helps people address issues like abandonment, intimacy struggles, and difficulties with trust by building more secure ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s own experience at the center of the work, emphasizing empathy, acceptance, and collaborative exploration to support self-understanding and growth for concerns such as low self-esteem, life transitions, and identity questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress through structured exercises and clear goal setting.
Finding the right combination of these approaches is part of the therapeutic process. George collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then adapts techniques as the work unfolds so the approach feels right and useful. This collaborative stance supports steady progress and responsiveness to change.
Online therapy through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility that fits busy schedules and varied circumstances. These options make it easier to access regular sessions, maintain continuity of care across life changes, and choose the format that best supports comfort and engagement with therapy.
