Client-Centered and CBT approaches for online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathetic, non-judgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers understanding and support. This approach is helpful for people who want to explore feelings, build self-awareness, and work through relationship or life changes at their own pace.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, low mood, and practical coping skills work because it combines reflection with concrete strategies to address specific problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Nicola will work collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaboration allows the plan to be adjusted over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care. These options can increase accessibility, help people stay consistent with therapy, and provide multiple ways to communicate depending on what feels most comfortable.
