How these approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It aims to build trust and help people find their own solutions by reflecting what matters to them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It often includes setting small goals and practicing new skills between sessions, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It includes strategies for distress tolerance and emotion regulation that people can apply in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what techniques feel most helpful. Decisions about methods are made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
