Approaches and Online Options for Therapy



Lisa Calloway draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where the person leads the conversation and their values guide the work. This approach helps when someone needs support processing emotions, strengthening self-understanding, or rebuilding trust after difficult experiences. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to problems like anxiety, panic, and depression, and offers practical tools for managing symptoms and daily challenges.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Lisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. The choice of approach is guided by the client-therapist relationship and the specific concerns presented.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and people in remote areas. These formats make it easier to maintain regular sessions and to access licensed professionals and therapists without a commute, supporting continuity of care in a way that fits each person’s life.
