Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and security. It helps clients explore attachment needs, improve emotional bonds, and address relationship distress that can stem from past attachment histories. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance where the therapist offers empathy and support while clients lead the pace and goals of change; this approach is useful for building self-awareness, confidence, and a clearer sense of personal direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety, depression, and other mood concerns.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Wilson collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That collaborative assessment helps shape a plan that can combine elements of different models as appropriate.



Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions or travel, and access licensed professionals from a distance. The variety of formats allows therapists and clients to choose what feels most comfortable and effective for the work ahead.
