Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Susan Flynn integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy into her online practice to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients can explore values and build self-trust - it is often helpful for self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and workplace stress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful when emotions feel overwhelming or communication patterns become strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Flynn works collaboratively with each person to select and adapt methods based on their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit sessions into busy routines or to access care from different locations. For many people, these options increase accessibility and consistency while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to deliver focused, goal-oriented support.
