How CBT and Motivational Interviewing Work in Online Therapy



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress and teaches practical skills to change them. It is often used for issues such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes by focusing on concrete strategies and measurable progress.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation to change. It is especially useful for addressing addictions, building commitment to new habits, and navigating stages of change without pressure or judgment.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Tina Williams and other licensed professionals work together with clients to determine which methods best fit the client’s goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessing that care. Video calls and phone sessions allow more natural conversation and visual connection, while live chat and text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and integrate therapy into everyday life.
