Depth and Practical Work Adapted for Online Therapy
Dr. Forrest commonly integrates Jungian Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy depending on client needs. Jungian Therapy invites exploration of symbols, dreams, and deeper patterns to illuminate recurring themes that shape relationships and identity, which can be helpful for clients working through long-standing attachment or trauma issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental stance so clients feel supported while they find their own solutions and build self-trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, mood, and daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Forrest works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adjusting the approach as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent care around work, family, and travel schedules, and to maintain continuity of treatment when in-person visits are not feasible. The combination of depth-oriented and practical techniques translates well to remote formats, allowing meaningful therapeutic work from wherever the client is located.
