Approaches for online support and healing

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and respect for the client's perspective. It focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship so clients can explore feelings, clarify values, and find their own solutions - useful for anxiety, relationship challenges, and emotional processing.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and gently challenge unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practice practical strategies to manage symptoms of stress, anxiety, and low mood. It is structured and goal-oriented, and can be adapted to work well in remote sessions.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences in a paced and supportive way, aiming to reduce the ways past events continue to affect daily life. This approach is suited to people coping with trauma-related concerns and post-traumatic reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Phillip Mapoma works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He and the client decide together how to proceed and can adjust methods as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which helps accommodate varied schedules, geographic distances, and different communication preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these options to maintain continuity of care and make regular work on goals more accessible for people with busy or changing lives.
