Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Nicole Hubbs draws on client-centered therapy to place each person's experience at the heart of treatment, creating a supportive environment where individual values and perspectives guide the work. This approach is especially helpful for those navigating identity concerns, relationship questions, or the emotional impact of life transitions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies to change behaviors and emotional responses. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, and stress-related challenges.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another tool she employs for relational work, helping partners and family members understand attachment needs and improve emotional connection and communication.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nicole will work with clients to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adjusting the plan as needed so therapy fits the person and the problem.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call, have sessions by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or family life and help maintain continuity of support when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt therapeutic techniques effectively across these formats to support progress.
