Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-Centered Therapy is built around the person’s priorities and choices. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the person’s lead to explore issues and set goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and tests new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and handling stressful situations without making things worse.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gaye will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up day to day. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and skill teaching. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can fit brief check-ins, homework prompts, or quick emotional support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while still using the same therapeutic approaches listed above.
