How Jana’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship where the client leads the pace and topics. This approach helps people feel heard and valued while they set personal goals and try new strategies. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers practical tools for emotion regulation, tolerance of distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with intense emotions and relationship challenges.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jana will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will tailor methods to what seems most helpful. That collaborative decision-making helps keep sessions focused and relevant as goals change.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls let the therapist and client see visual cues and work interactively. Phone sessions can fit short check-ins or times when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to share thoughts between sessions and to check in quickly during a busy week. These options make it simpler to fit regular care into daily life while using the therapeutic methods described above.
