Therapeutic Approaches Guided for Online Care
Heather combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy with mindfulness practices to offer practical strategies that translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice and reframe patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, low mood, and motivation challenges, and it is useful for building concrete coping skills. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward change, which can be especially effective when clients want targeted progress on relationships, confidence, or life transitions. Mindfulness Therapy adds grounding exercises and attention practices that support emotional regulation and reduce reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heather collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and licensed professionals often adapt techniques over time to match what is most helpful for the client. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and workable.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity through transitions, and access consistent support without travel, while still allowing therapists and clients to focus on practical skills and meaningful progress.
