Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Traynette Jenkins-Reese

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's own perspective and strengths, creating a supportive environment where goals emerge from the client's priorities. This approach is well suited to relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and self-esteem work because it builds on what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and learning practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and anger. It offers concrete strategies for shifting unhelpful thinking and developing healthier coping responses. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on immediate goals and small, achievable steps - it helps people make progress during periods of change or when facing specific problems such as communication breakdowns or blended family adjustments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Traynette works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques as the work evolves. This collaborative process helps shape a treatment plan that feels practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from home or other convenient locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor their approach to each person.
