Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care

Dr. Nava commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques to guide online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and empathy, helping people explore their values and priorities while fostering self-directed growth - it can be especially helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then practicing practical skills to shift reactions and behaviors; it is often effective for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on clear goals and immediate, actionable steps to produce change, making it useful for problem-solving around communication, parenting, and decision points.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Nava works with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can occur by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing clients to access support from home or other convenient locations. This range of options helps accommodate busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and different comfort levels with remote care.
