Therapeutic approaches for online support
Shila draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel respected as the experts of their own experiences. This approach helps with building trust, clarifying values, and developing a therapy plan that fits each person's goals.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to teach practical coping skills for anxiety, stress, and mood-related concerns. CBT is useful for people who want structured strategies to change patterns that interfere with daily functioning.
Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) is another approach Shila may integrate when relationships and attachment concerns are central. EFT helps people recognize and express core emotions and strengthen emotional bonds with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together - Shila will collaborate with each person to determine which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and those who prefer remote support. These options make it easier to maintain continuity, access consistent care from home or elsewhere, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.
