Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Mary Lindsey Higgins uses approaches that center on the individual and practical skills building. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting people where they are and shaping the work around their values, preferences, and unique ways of processing - it is helpful for building self-esteem, clarifying goals, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) concentrates on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering structured tools for conditions like anxiety, depression, and mood challenges. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple awareness practices to help manage stress, emotional reactivity, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and personal style. This collaborative stance means approaches can be blended and adjusted over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with modalities such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and access from different settings. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and fit therapeutic work into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists focused on practical, effective support.
