Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-centered therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work, with the therapist offering empathy, active listening, and support as clients explore their values, relationships, and goals; this approach is helpful for people seeking deeper self-understanding and improved communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, stress, mood difficulties, and relationship patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness and can be especially useful for managing strong emotions and improving relationship functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Treva Sexton works collaboratively with each client to select and adapt methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines practical techniques with a client-focused stance to help people make meaningful changes.

Online therapy with Dr. Sexton is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort level.
