Practical approaches and online care for young people
Leyla uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress and anxiety, then practices concrete skills to shift those patterns. CBT is often helpful for worries, low mood, social anxiety, and for building coping strategies that work in daily life.
Alongside structured techniques, Leyla emphasizes a collaborative, person-centered way of working that centers the young person’s voice. This approach focuses on understanding each individual’s experience, pacing sessions to what feels manageable, and choosing interventions that match goals and communication styles.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Leyla works together with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, over the phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging - making it easier to connect around school, work, or family schedules and to access consistent support without needing to travel.
