Therapeutic Approaches Used in Online Care
Viva Steed commonly draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing in her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore their own goals and values; it is helpful for building self-understanding and confidence. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing practical strategies to change them - it is often used for stress, anxiety, and issues that benefit from concrete skills. Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and strengthens internal motivation, which can be useful for addictions and readiness-based goals.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Viva Steed works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. Clients are invited to be active partners in shaping their care.
Online sessions through video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for those who prefer remote access. These options make it possible to receive consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to fit into varied daily routines.
