How Lisa’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Online sessions let the therapist and client have a focused conversation about goals, values, and what feels most important right now. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT works well online because thought records, behavior plans, and homework can be shared and reviewed between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and calm the mind. These practices can be taught and guided effectively in a video or phone session.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT exercises for a few weeks, then adding mindfulness or hypnotherapy techniques if they feel helpful.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls are useful for full sessions with visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat or text-based messaging lets people check in between meetings or use brief coaching-style support. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on progress and practical steps.
