Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a warm, accepting space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to explore feelings and values. This approach helps people who need empathy, validation, and support while making decisions or processing difficult emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills to change reactions and improve daily functioning.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship struggles, and developing more adaptive coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sheila works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors techniques from these methods to fit the individual’s situation. Over time, adjustments are made based on what proves most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access care from home or other convenient locations. These options allow therapy to fit into varied schedules and life demands while maintaining consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists trained in these approaches.
