How these approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It helps people feel heard and work at their own pace, which can be useful for stress, relationship concerns, and parenting strains.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps people build practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change habits related to addiction.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear, short-term goals and small steps that lead to change. It works well when someone wants concrete actions and faster progress on a specific problem.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed.

Note that the therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let people focus on skill-building between sessions and bring real-life examples into conversation without promising a particular format.
