Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Heather Horvath integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship and helps clients explore their values and choices while feeling heard and respected. CBT is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and change behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and coping with crisis.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Heather works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and adapts methods so therapy feels relevant and manageable. She emphasizes a team-oriented relationship in which clients and therapist decide together what strategies to try.
Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow people to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals can deliver the same evidence-informed techniques remotely, making it possible to receive consistent support from a therapist regardless of location.
