Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Rodney Thomas integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) in his work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening-focused approach that helps people explore their own goals and strengths while building a trusting therapeutic relationship. CBT offers practical, skills-based strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. EFT focuses on understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships, helping partners and individuals improve connection and resolve conflict.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Rodney collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors the plan over time so treatment stays relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access support from home. These modalities allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, ongoing care while adapting to each client's preferred way of communicating.
