Approaches for Online Therapy and Collaborative Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own perspective and strengths, creating a supportive space for self-exploration and goal setting that can help with self-esteem, depression, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress while building practical coping strategies. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational patterns influence present-day connections and emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy-related issues, family dynamics, and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Leah works collaboratively with clients to determine what methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they evaluate progress and adapt the plan as necessary, prioritizing a respectful and responsive partnership.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and connect with licensed professionals and therapists from wherever the client is located in Florida. The variety of formats allows for real-time conversation, brief check-ins, or ongoing written communication depending on what supports each person most effectively.
