Therapeutic Approaches and How Online Therapy Works

Laura Angers Maddox integrates Trauma-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on addressing the specific impact of traumatic experiences and helping clients develop skills to manage intrusive memories, emotional reactions and day-to-day triggers. CBT emphasizes identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to build practical coping strategies.

She also draws on a client-centered stance, creating a supportive environment where the client's goals and preferences guide the process. Finding the most effective approach is a collaborative effort - the therapist works with clients to tailor techniques and pace to their needs, adjusting methods as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options can make attending sessions easier around work, family responsibilities or geographic limitations and allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care across different circumstances. The variety of formats supports different communication styles and preferences, making it simpler to engage in therapy in a way that fits each person's life.
