Therapeutic Approaches and Care Options Online
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens deeply and supports the client's own capacity for growth - it is well suited for individuals working through self-esteem, relationship, and life transition issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it is often used to relieve anxiety, depression, and difficulties with coping and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reshaping emotional responses within close relationships, making it useful for couples work, intimacy issues, and repairing attachment ruptures.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Victoria works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress evolves. This partnership helps tailor a plan that feels meaningful and practical.
Online sessions provide several practical advantages. Video calls allow for face-to-face connection from wherever a client is located in California, while phone sessions offer a simpler audio option. Live chat and text-based messaging give flexible, brief-contact ways to check in between sessions. Together these formats increase accessibility and scheduling flexibility, making it easier for clients and licensed professionals to maintain consistent care.
