Approach-focused online therapy with practical support

Grace integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to support online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship and treating the person as the expert of their own life, which helps when navigating life changes, identity concerns, and feelings of isolation. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, low mood, or disordered eating and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Selection of the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Grace works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different strategies, adjusting methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to access support from home, and to continue care during life transitions, while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to deliver structured, skills-based interventions and relational support.
