Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy places the client's experience at the center of the work, offering a supportive environment where the individual’s goals, values, and perspective guide the process. This approach is helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, life purpose, and transitions because it prioritizes the client’s own insights and pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. It offers concrete skills for managing symptoms, improving problem solving, and changing unhelpful habits.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance techniques that can reduce reactivity, support emotion regulation, and complement other therapeutic work such as coping with trauma or managing mood symptoms.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Ruth works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts interventions over time as progress unfolds.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for people who prefer remote care. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of support, attend appointments from home or work, and use brief check-ins or longer sessions as needed, allowing therapy to fit into everyday life.
