Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes respectful, nonjudgmental listening and supports clients in exploring their feelings and values. It helps people gain clarity about their priorities and make choices that reflect their own needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing practical strategies to change thinking and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Josanna works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts recommendations as progress unfolds. The process is guided by the client-therapist partnership and practical goals for change.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, provide access from different locations, and allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them. Licensed professionals can adapt both Client-Centered and CBT techniques effectively in virtual sessions to support steady progress.
