Approaches and Online Care with Melissa Rohrbach
Melissa Rohrbach draws on several well-established therapy approaches to meet a range of needs. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes accepting, nonjudgmental listening and collaboration so clients can explore their values and make changes at their own pace - it is often helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to shift them - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with challenging patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach to help process traumatic memories and reduce the ongoing impact of past events on current functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Melissa works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors methods over time, combining elements when helpful, and reviews progress with clients to adjust the plan together.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access care from varied locations and schedules. These formats offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility needs, and allow licensed professionals and therapists to deliver consistent, goal-focused support in ways that suit each client's life.
