Therapeutic approaches and working online
Dr. Curry commonly draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy during sessions. Client-centered therapy means the therapist listens closely and follows what the person says is most important, which helps people feel heard and set priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.She also uses motivational interviewing when someone is unsure about change, helping them clarify their own reasons and strengths. Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client work together to decide which methods fit the person's goals, pace, and preferences.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Many people find that remote sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what you need from scheduling, session length, and how to pace goal-setting so therapy supports everyday life.
