Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the client's perspective and personal strengths. In this approach the therapist follows the client's lead, offers empathetic listening, and supports the client in finding their own solutions - a helpful fit for people working on self-esteem, motivation, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with challenging patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy or DBT teaches skills for regulating intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. DBT can be especially useful for patterns of impulsivity, unstable moods, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Bakura works collaboratively with clients to tailor methods to individual needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support across different formats while helping clients access care from where they are.
