Approaches that work well online and in session
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely and builds on what matters most to the person seeking help, which can be useful for relationship concerns and self-esteem work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teach practical skills to change behaviors and feelings. CBT is often useful for managing anxiety, stress, and everyday coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most helpful. That might mean combining listening-focused Client-Centered work with skill-building CBT, or drawing on emotionally focused and narrative techniques when relationships and personal stories are central.
