Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Stacy Mason integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and respect, helping people explore their feelings and build on their own strengths to improve relationships, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and support healthier daily routines. Solution-focused therapy is brief and goal-oriented, concentrating on practical steps and small changes to move toward concrete outcomes for issues like parenting challenges, relationship concerns, or managing addictive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Stacy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they are relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals and therapists, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, and other commitments, expand access for people who live far from offices, and support ongoing communication between sessions to maintain progress.
