Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Joanna Klekotko integrates several well-established approaches to meet each client's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and related difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasises an empathic, non-directive relationship in which the therapist offers understanding and support to help clients discover their own solutions and build self-trust. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that develop from early connections and can be useful for relationship issues, trauma-related concerns and attachment difficulties.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Joanna works with clients to consider their goals, preferences and life circumstances and adapts techniques from these models to find the best fit for each person. This collaborative spirit helps shape a tailored plan that can evolve as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with a licensed professional offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video, over the phone, via live chat or through text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to continue work during transitions, and to access therapists while living in different locations, all while maintaining therapeutic connection and continuity of care.
