Therapeutic approaches and online care with Paul Sohr
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience guides the work. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore goals, values, and personal strengths.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a practical, skills-based approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used to address anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative method designed to strengthen a person’s own motivation to change, often used in work around addictions and ambivalence about behavior change. It helps people clarify reasons for change and take steps at their own pace.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. As a licensed professional, Paul will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter check-ins are available via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from different locations while working with a licensed therapist.
