Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jana Berhow commonly integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques into her work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person’s own experience and goals, creating space for individuals to explore their feelings and make choices that feel right for them; it is useful for building self-understanding and strengthening motivation for change.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, mood difficulties, and compulsive patterns. Mindfulness therapy introduces present-moment awareness and simple practices to improve emotional regulation and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jana works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best given their needs, goals, and preferences, and licensed professionals often blend techniques to meet evolving concerns.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to access care from varied locations and schedules. These formats offer flexibility for ongoing work, allow people to use brief check-ins or longer sessions as needed, and can help maintain consistency when life is busy or circumstances change.
