Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional responses. It helps people understand patterns of closeness, abandonment, and trust - often useful for relationship struggles, attachment issues, and family concerns.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own capacity for change. The therapist offers support and reflection while clients explore values, identity, and personal goals, which can be especially helpful for self-esteem, life transitions, and identity exploration.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches strategies to change them. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and problem-solving in everyday life.
Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shantel Farrow works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she may combine techniques from different approaches to fit an individual’s situation.
Online therapy offers practical benefits including scheduling flexibility and easier access to care. Sessions can take place by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to choose the format that fits their routine and comfort level. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they support consistent progress toward therapy goals.
