Approaches for online therapy and practical care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes the individual’s perspective and works from the client’s own goals and values. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and helps people build on their existing strengths to address concerns like relationship issues, self-esteem, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and then testing and changing those patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many day-to-day challenges because it offers concrete skills and structured steps for change.
Mindfulness therapy teaches skills for staying present and noticing thoughts and bodily sensations without judgment, which can help reduce reactivity to stress and improve emotional regulation. It often complements other approaches and supports coping with anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, and persistent stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Nina Reed works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they can adjust strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access support from different locations. These options can increase accessibility, allow for continuity during life changes, and accommodate different communication styles that clients may prefer.
