Online support options
How these approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist reflects what you say, helps you notice feelings and choices, and supports you in setting the pace and goals that feel right. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It uses exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking and build new routines that reduce anxiety, depression, or addictive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and choose techniques that fit your needs, goals, and how you prefer to engage. That choice is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let you work face-to-face from wherever you are. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or for shorter updates. These options help therapy fit into busy schedules and different communication styles.
