Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lawrence uses client-centered therapy to place the person's experience and goals at the heart of the work - this approach focuses on empathy, respect, and helping people identify and build on their own strengths to solve problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people recognize and change thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and other practical concerns by teaching concrete skills and structured strategies. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness to help manage intense feelings, reduce impulsive behaviors, and improve relationships.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the collaborative process. Lawrence partners with each person to assess needs, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works best for their goals and preferences. The aim is a practical, goal-focused path that fits the individual's life.

Online therapy makes these methods accessible through flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to engage from home or on the go, schedule around work or caregiving responsibilities, and use the communication style that best supports progress.
