Integrating CBT and EFT into Online Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then test and replace them with more balanced ways of thinking. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and mood challenges because it focuses on practical skills and behavioral changes that can improve daily functioning.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses and relationship patterns. EFT can be especially helpful for addressing attachment concerns, relationship difficulties, and emotional regulation by fostering clearer emotional awareness and more secure connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Justin will work collaboratively with each client to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative exploration helps tailor sessions so they feel relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or to connect from different locations. These options provide practical ways to maintain continuity of care while allowing therapists and clients to focus on meaningful progress and skill-building.
