Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead. It helps people clarify their values, strengthen self-awareness, and work through relationship or identity concerns by building a trusting therapeutic relationship.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for addressing depression, anxiety, stress, and recurring patterns that affect daily functioning.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing self-destructive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Richard collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals and therapists through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent support from wherever a client is located.
