Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration. It focuses on creating an accepting atmosphere where clients explore their values and make choices that reflect their goals. This approach is often helpful for people facing self-esteem concerns, life transitions, and relationship challenges.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It uses practical techniques to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and coping difficulties by teaching skills for problem solving and emotional regulation.
Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences by working to process memories and reduce trauma-related symptoms. It is tailored to the pace and readiness of each person and can be useful for those recovering from abuse or other traumatic events.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Jay works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He and the client review options and adapt the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be delivered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from different locations within the state, and engage in the format that feels most comfortable for the individual.
