How Wendy’s Approaches Work in Online Therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s perspective. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want from therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, making treatment a collaborative effort.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it simpler to keep regular appointments this way, and therapists can still guide skill practice, offer coping strategies, and review progress during remote sessions.
