Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting clients where they are and supporting their personal goals through empathy, active listening, and collaboration. This approach helps people build self-understanding, strengthen confidence, and make changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Louvenia will work collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of techniques best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and shorter or supplemental contacts are possible through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from familiar settings while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
