Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Rick Miller draws from several well-established approaches to tailor online work to each person’s needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the client’s experience guides the pace and goals of treatment - it is especially helpful for clients seeking increased self-understanding and emotional support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop practical strategies to change them, which can aid anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional experience and attachment patterns in relationships, offering tools for improving communication and deepening intimacy.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is handled collaboratively. Rick will work with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then adapt methods so the work fits each individual or couple.

Online sessions via video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for those who prefer receiving care from home. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different session formats, and access licensed professionals without travel barriers.
