Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Lena Gonzales integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and EMDR to address a range of concerns in online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and respect for the client’s perspective - it helps people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and strengthen personal resources. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often effective for anxiety, depression, panic, and relationship difficulties by teaching practical skills and coping strategies. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, which can be especially helpful for post-traumatic stress and lingering effects of past abuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lena works collaboratively with clients to assess goals, preferences, and needs, and she tailors interventions so the chosen methods fit each individual’s situation. That collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. Lena provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication styles and schedules. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and to continue treatment even when in-person sessions are not feasible.
