Practical Approaches for Online Family and Life Challenges
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is a structured, goal-oriented approach often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes practical steps and existing strengths to create change quickly - it helps clients set clear goals and build concrete strategies to reach them, which can be useful for relationship issues, parenting concerns, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Karla Ayers works with clients to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques from CBT and solution-focused work to fit each person or family's situation. She supports clients in defining priorities and testing small, achievable changes together.
