Therapeutic approaches for online care
Maria integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) into her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, empathetic relationship where the client leads the pace of exploration and the therapist offers acceptance and reflection - it helps with building self-understanding and managing life transitions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. EFT concentrates on emotional connection and attachment patterns in relationships, helping partners and individuals understand and reshape painful interaction cycles.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is done collaboratively. Maria works with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and she may blend techniques over time to suit changing priorities.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or busy days. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support and continuity of care while accommodating different communication styles and life demands.
