Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Mariah Stockard
Mariah uses a blend of well-established approaches to support clients depending on their needs. Attachment-Based Therapy examines patterns of relating that develop from early connections and looks at how those patterns affect current relationships - it can be helpful for abandonment concerns, attachment issues, intimacy and relationship difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with eating or coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration - it helps people build self-esteem, process emotions, and find solutions that fit their values and goals.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Mariah collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their presenting concerns, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan over time as needs evolve.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling, reduce barriers related to travel or mobility, and make ongoing support more accessible for people with busy lives or geographic constraints. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these approaches effectively to remote formats to help clients progress toward their goals.
