Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Rachel LaVergne draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where clients lead the conversation and their personal goals guide the work. This approach helps people feel heard and valued while they explore changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; CBT is practical and skill-focused, and it can be especially useful for anxiety, stress, and self-esteem challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for clients struggling with intense emotions or relational difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Rachel works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. Clients are involved in decisions about techniques and pacing so that treatment feels aligned with their values and life circumstances.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals without the need to travel, and they allow therapists and clients to maintain momentum between sessions using brief check-ins when helpful.
