Online support options
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Lisa uses client-centered work to follow each person's priorities and create a respectful space for conversation. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the individual, and helping them name and build on their strengths.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday stresses because it links thinking patterns to actions and mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what is helpful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people work face-to-face when that helps. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or the camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit quick check-ins, short skill practice, or times when writing feels easier than speaking.
