Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's perspectives and priorities, helping people voice what matters and set their own goals. It is useful for relationship and identity questions where understanding and communication are central.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses focused exercises and behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, address addictive patterns, and improve daily functioning.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can help with anger, impulsivity, and relationship conflict by teaching step-by-step strategies to use in stressful moments.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to try methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean starting with one approach and adding skills or techniques from others as work progresses.
