Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the concerns the client brings. It helps people clarify what matters most to them and set goals based on their values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is practical for anxiety, depression, and stressful life changes because it teaches ways to test and change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Narrative therapy treats personal stories as a starting point. It helps people reframe the way they talk about themselves and their relationships, which can shift how they respond to difficult situations.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit their goals, preferences, and what they want to change. That choice can be adjusted as therapy moves forward.
