Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy works
Mary-Eileen Walker integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness approaches to meet a variety of needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic relationship where the client’s goals and values guide the work - it can be especially helpful for building self-understanding, strengthening relationships, and navigating life transitions. CBT offers structured strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-focused awareness and gentle acceptance techniques that may support emotion regulation, stress reduction, and coping with chronic patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary-Eileen works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors methods and tools so the plan fits the individual. This collaborative stance helps ensure treatment strategies are relevant and workable for the client’s life.
Online therapy offers flexibility to engage in sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or to continue care when in-person options are limited. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support, skill-building, and relational work while accommodating different comfort levels and practical constraints.
