Approaches for Online Therapy and Practical Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship in which the client leads the pace and direction of work. This approach helps people who want a collaborative environment to explore feelings, values, and personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills based approach that examines the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors; it is often used to address anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can be useful for stress, anger, and attention related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sonia works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The emphasis is on practical tools that align with what each person hopes to achieve.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how care is delivered - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text based messaging - allowing sessions to fit into varied schedules and life demands. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, work through challenges in real time, and access licensed professionals from different locations.
