Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support and Growth
Monica integrates several evidence-informed approaches into online work to meet a range of needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on the ways early and current relationships shape emotional patterns; it can help people understand relationship stress, patterns of closeness and distance, and reactions that arise in caregiving or parenting roles. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and meeting the client where they are; this approach supports people facing anxiety, life transitions, and feelings of isolation by creating a respectful space for self-exploration. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete tools for managing symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Monica works with each person to clarify goals, consider preferences, and tailor techniques so the approach fits the client’s needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Clients are involved in choosing which strategies feel most useful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from different settings. This variety of options helps people engage in therapy in ways that feel most comfortable and convenient.
