Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Jendayi Ford draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help clients build present-moment awareness and calm, teaching simple practices that can reduce reactivity and improve coping in daily life. Motivational Interviewing is another tool in her work - a collaborative, nonjudgmental method designed to strengthen a person’s own motivation to change, often useful for goals like managing habits or navigating life transitions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Jendayi works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly blend techniques to match individual situations.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, access support from home, and maintain continuity of care when life is unpredictable.
