How Kamala Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online

Kamala integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental environment so clients can explore feelings and values; it is especially helpful for issues like relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying patterns of thought and behavior and developing practical tools to manage stress, grief, and work or caregiving pressures.

She approaches treatment as a collaborative process, working with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together the therapist and client review what feels most useful and adjust the plan over time so the approach evolves with progress and changing circumstances.

Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for those balancing caregiving, work, or health concerns. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible, while allowing licensed professionals to provide consistent therapeutic support.
