Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy centers the relationship between therapist and client, prioritizing empathy and respect so the client can explore identity and values at their own pace. This approach is helpful for people seeking affirmation and a supportive space to gain clarity about personal goals and self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical tools and exercises, which can be effective for addressing low self-esteem, motivation challenges, and relationship patterns. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, strengths-based method that helps people resolve ambivalence and build internal motivation for change, useful when someone is unsure about next steps or needs help boosting commitment to goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Sierra works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines elements from different approaches as appropriate and discusses options so clients can make informed choices about their care.

Online therapy with Sierra is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for scheduling and lets people access support from home or other convenient locations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity of care, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.
